In those conditions, it's often about being aware of (and using) an escape route; which to be fair, some of them did.

It shouldn't be too difficult to think up a scenario for an impending collision where the autonomous car you are travelling in will sacrifice your life (or at least seriously injure you) rather than taking evasive action that would/could maim or kill others. Can you come up with one? Approaching a ...

We know how fast pedestrians can move sideways (it's not an infinite speed) and have automatic cars moderate their speed when passing humans at that distance, such that any impact will not do significant harm (another calculable limit that we can stay well below). This is likely to mean that vehicl...

So if that person steps out the approaching driver is likely to be dazzled by the vehicle's retro-reflective material and beacons. What am I missi...

There's a clear progression, for example the typical 'SMIDSY' situation: Driver arrives at junction . . . 1 Doesn't look 2 Looks, but rider is obscured (eg car door pillar, street furniture, other vehicle) [ie 'not visible'] 3 Looks, but doesn't notice the rider 4 Looks, notices the rider, but make...

There's a good comment in the article you linked to Horse pointing out the test is not really that scientific. The test is trying to suggest that HiViz gives no benefit because drivers were still to close. That reminds of the oft quoted "It's not a force field". The purpose of HiViz is to...
