Do these cars know when there is a cliff they should avoid? Will someone direct it to go on those crazy cliff-ridden roads in CA and it makes a slight mistake beyond the lines and then goes over the cliff? Never mind the other side where it might run into the cliff face...but I assume it can “see” the wall so not as risky as the chasm on the other side.

...

Do human driven cars ever have accidents on those roads.

On a related topic there are severe traffic accidents every day involving human driven cars getting out of their lane.

Of course. But we KNOW we should avoid it. Not sure some of those intelligence markers are making it into these true automobiles.

There are far too many variables for driving a car. It is just too difficult to account for all the variables in AI with a moving object of decent size and speed.

For a train? OK. Basically stays on the tracks. But a car has too many degrees of freedom to cover it all with some robot.
