It's not like the autonomous car is supposed to know when a pedestrian is going to do something stupid instead of staying on the sidewalk. And if she was between two parked cars (a bid no-no but people do it all the time) it might not have been able to pick her up until too late.


Those are the concerns the industry will have to address.

Should/can it see people over the roof of a car but not actually in the roadway?

Also, at what lengths should the car go to prevent hitting a pedestrian or another vehicle? Should it swerve if it is safe to do so, or is braking the only option?
