    This is kinda dumb, and also jaguar. But doesn’t it make sense in a way. Imagine trying to cross the street and a driverless car is stopping. I would at least feel a little better if i knew the car was stopping because of me and maybe not run me over. But the obvious answer is to just wait and make a traffic jam.

      It makes a lot of sense. I make eye contact with drivers, because then I’m mostly sure they’ve seen me.

      With a driverless car I’d like to know it has acknowledged me, so I can start crossing the road. Otherwise I’ll wait until it has completely stopped. So there needs to be some sort of feedback that’s intuitive. Might as well be eyes.
