A large number of accidents can be avoided by the non-&amp;quot;at fault&amp;quot; party alone exercising caution – something autonomous vehicles should be far superior at than humans.&lt;p&gt;Say you&amp;#x27;re approaching an intersection with a green light while another car is traveling perpendicular at a moderately high rate of speed – perhaps just 5mph faster than their maximum safe stopping speed. You&amp;#x27;re completely allowed to just keep driving through the intersection, and when they hit you, they will be at fault. However, you could have avoided the collision by recognizing the situation and slowing down – and this is a type of analysis that autonomous vehicles are specially suited for compared to human drivers.</text><parent_chain><item><author>downandout</author><text>&lt;i&gt;&amp;gt;It should be frightening to anyone on the streets that Uber managers are making decisions to put self driving cars on the road.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;Something that probably should have been in the article&amp;#x27;s title that this accident occurred because the &lt;i&gt;human&lt;/i&gt; driver in the &lt;i&gt;other car&lt;/i&gt; failed to yield.
