Simultaneously with the (partial) launch of autonomous driving the limits of the system are visible. Currently, it shall be there, for example, next to the comparatively harmless jam assistant up to 60 km/h, the for the ride on a normal highway up to 130 km/h. It should keep its speed by changing to the fast lane, but has not yet been prepared for the complicated entering onto the motorway.

What makes the matter difficult, shows how much one cares with the handover of responsibility, especially with the return to the driver. The will announced early in order to prevent actually the failure and the emergency stop on the hard shoulder. But even during the autonomous drive the person behind the steering wheel should be checked on 'sanity'.

On parking, the autonomy is likely expected to expand, but for country roads or even the city, it becomes difficult. But the autonomous driver does not make the problems, but the environment. Just consider the increasing number of smaller towns, which reduce the traffic sign jungle until absolutely essential leftovers. Here motorists should communicate with each other, but how does that work with autonomous?

Sure, on the highway these can even change politely at driveways into the fast lane. The first generation of autonomous driving cars will not yet networked CartoCar, otherwise perhaps Computer could reach an agreement among themselves. Case of the CAN bus this finally works, but here there are also clearly defined hierarchies. When at home the network fails, this is perhaps not that bad, but in the middle of the city?

Autonomous driving makes other road users less secure. Or imitate the relatively small distances of an automatic jam assistant, without possessing its responsiveness. Still no accidents are happened with autonomous according to the developers, but maybe in their surroundings in the future. Or you are annoyed how great the distance first will be case of an autopilot of a Tesla when starting (video below).
