Yeah, your criticisms are dead on, but you'll probably be authoring the next generation of these articles soon, so just set the bar higher :) Also: I'm pretty sure they meant that the autonomous vehicle would pull up behind the truck, have to assume that it is stopped because it is in a line at a traffic light, and wait until the truck ahead moves. In that context, I think it's a good example.If in a particular city it is customary for trucks to double-park while making deliveries, will the driverless vehicle coming up behind a stopped truck think (in software terms) that it is at a stop light and wait there for the unseen light to change?
