MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — Google, a leader in effortsto create driverless cars, has run into an odd safety conundrum: humans.
加利福尼亚州山景城——作为无人驾驶汽车研发领域的领头羊,谷歌(Google)遇到了一个奇怪的安全难题:人类。
Last month, as one of Google’s self-driving cars approached a crosswalk, it did what it wassupposed to do when it slowed to allow a pedestrian to cross, prompting its “safety driver toapply the brakes. The pedestrian was fine, but not so much Google’s car, which was hit frombehind by a human-driven sedan.
上月,当谷歌的一辆自动驾驶汽车来到人行横道前时,它像设想的那样放慢速度让一名行人先行,促使“安全驾驶员启动刹车。那个行人没事,但谷歌那辆车却没那么幸运。它被后面的一辆由人驾驶的轿车追尾了。
Google’s fleet of autonomous test cars is programmed to follow the letter of the law. But it canbe tough to get around if you are a stickler for the rules. One Google car, in a test in 2009,couldn’t get through a four-way stop because its sensors kept waiting for other (human)drivers to stop completely and let it go. The human drivers kept inching forward, looking for theadvantage — paralyzing Google’s robot.
按照设计,谷歌的自动测试车会严格遵守法律条文。但如果拘泥于规则,上路可能都会变得困难。在2009年的一次测试中,谷歌的车没能通过一个十字路口,因为它的传感器一直在等着其他(人类)司机彻底停下来,让它过去。但其他司机一直在向前蹭,寻找有利时机。这种情况让谷歌的机器人陷入了瘫痪。
