Google says self-driving car hits municipal bus in minor crash
I live in the area.  The stinking buses around here ...  They crowd the lanes regularly.  Us human drivers I suppose are used to it, but it is a serious pain in the butt.<p>The buses will drive right next to the lane marker, with their mirrors hanging over into your lane.  This makes it so everybody has to creep over a little bit into the drivers side lane and hopefully everybody in traffic has a small enough car to deal with it.  Otherwise, you have to hang back behind the bus as if it&#x27;s in your lane and wait for it to get to a stop.<p>I&#x27;ve had my issues with Google autonomous cars (they drive slow and they used to be exceptionally slow at making right hand turns, causing traffic problems), but in this instance I&#x27;m happy to throw VTA under the bus, if you will, and lay blame 100% at their feet.
