I wonder what they'd do during the several months of the year (in some parts of the country) where you quite often can't see the road markings because they're covered by snow. Do you suppose that having these self-driving cars developed & tested in coastal California may have led to a few things being overlooked?
Then there's the whole idea of having the automated system do the driving in "normal" conditions, but abrogating control to a human if things become sticky - when the typical human now has no driving experience because the automated system has been doing it all.
