Google tested its self driving cars since 09 and since then there have been 16 minor accidents were place with 12 of them happened because the vehicles were rear-ended by a human driver. From the beginning, the company designed autonomous cars to follow the rules of the road and now the company is to teach them to behave like people.
According to Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO of Nvidia Corp about the reason why is he getting back-ended, the answer is that it causes as computer. It is too spare for his own good. For example, during the recent test campaign involving two journalists from the Wall Street Journal, Google Lexus RX450h slowed because he thought that a car traveling behind approaching so fast that the car would cut the Google car as it passed, however, the reality, the other car did not do that.
another opportunity came when Google car tried to make a left turn at a T-intersection busy with limited views of cross-border traffic and waited for about 30 seconds before making the turn and stopped in the middle of intersection suddenly. It turned out that the woman on the other side of the street stood by the curb who cheated Google car thinking she was trying to cross the road.
With regard to these situations, Google is currently the construction of an algorithm for managing the flexibility and interpretation more human.
