Mercedes-Benz wins approval for Level 3 autonomous driving on the Autobahn
There is one thing I will never understand, why do a lot of people talk about speed limits as the speed you need to be driving? It’s the maximum speed you can reach before being fined, it doesn’t mean “oh man I’m driving at 90km/h and the limit is 100, that’s so wrong”.Some roads (at least here in Italy) also have a minimum speed requirement when there is no traffic, which goes higher the more you go to the left lanes, but that’s another story.Anyway I think that reading speed limits from road signs is quite stupid and frankly useless, most of the time the speed you need to be driving is contextual and the same applies to a lot of other dynamics of driving.Well done Mercedes, one step at a time raising the bar once you manage to do “simple” things right.
