"You can only profile the road out to a limited distance"

Though, with many self-driving cars perhaps the sensors on each could share info, thereby mapping a larger (if not, endless) area.

Oh man, the vulnerabilities of using likely untrustable networked sensors for safety critical operations boggle the mind. While the sensors theoretically could be made trustable, for some level of trust, I would be very wary of trusting at the level of safety critical application. Inadvertent vulnerabilities and attacks by malicious actors would be catastrophic.

My prediction: "crashdummy" will eclipse "heartbleed" and "shellshock"!
