Reply to comment by razorirr in 1 person dies when Tesla hits fire truck on I-680, 4 firefighters injured by twelveparsnips

>In the conditions you have driving, you have to throw out any measurement of something not moving, such as that parked firetruck and mark it as invalid.

That should depend on where it is. Is it on the side of the road? Not an issue. In my lane? Real issue.

It is telling that no other self driving tech is having trouble with this. Everyone else has this figured out.

You would think that but no. If you consider anything in front of you not moving as reason to stop, if i put you on a hill, your radar is now pointing down the slope, so as you approach the bottom your vision will tell you "im ok to proceed, its just the hill slope leveling off." Radar will tell you "oh shit theres a stationary object, brake now". Stationary objects in path is a limitation of using radar, which cant tell what the object is.
