    @_rt¹⁰⁰: I'd just use paintballs, the design doesn't designate what it should shoot. #fullyautomatedandyautonomousse...

    this won't work when people fight over parking spaces. if someone else rushes into the space after your car has already started its process, how will it react? #vailautonomousvaletparking

    It would have been nice to get some reference or idea where the whole "runs over people" point comes from. Rosa mentions it over and over and over but nobody is hurt in the video. No footnotes or anything

    @bricatoxchod: From the linked article:

    "So what’s the hold-up? Well, the car currently can’t detect obstacles. Like, you know, people."

    God forbid someone leaves a shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot. How would the car know to drive around something or sit and wait? I picture gridlock at the grocery store.
    Maybe someone can use the same tech on shopping carts so they automatically return to the cart corral? Because trying to park in an open spot, occupied by a stray cart some lazy prick who couldn't walk 4 feet to put it away, irritates the living piss out of me. #vailautonomousvaletparking
