Part 7/12:
Challenges and Quirks Persist
Despite many successes, the review also highlights persistent quirks. The system can make unnecessary braking for pedestrians that are not yet in the path or respond overly cautiously in certain situations, reflecting its increased "scared of pedestrians" trait. An example includes the car slowing down excessively when a pedestrian approaches, even when no crossing is imminent.
In complex intersections with road closures or unclear signage, the vehicle sometimes becomes confused or second guesses its actions. For instance, when the destination is on a blocked street, the car will halt at the boundary or hesitate, illustrating limitations in handling closed-road scenarios.
