text: We have all dealt with a system malfunction, most commonly in cell phones, and what says that these driverless cars will be any different. Electronics short out when exposed to water, and most of the sites that these new cars are being tested at are relatively warm and dry. Will these cars work in Chicago were they get heavy snow? Also, will they be able to comprehend what is happening when they try to go the speed limit on icy roads? New things happen all the time when driving on a regular basis in less than optimal conditions and trying to compute all these new things and storing them away for later could be to much for the system to handle.
