99.99...9% of my driving takes place on heavily mapped well-managed roads (occasional pothole notwithstanding) that are heavily trafficked by other cars. As far as I'm concerned, if Google can do this, their vehicle is fully autonomous.



Only like three towns are "heavily mapped" to the level required for a Google self-driving car to work. And the problem is that if the car relies on the map, your first car to see a road or a change in the road, won't know what to do.

"As far as you're concerned" doesn't mean a whole lot.
