I agree, it would be interesting to see. I'd also like to see it handle driving in both a heavy snow winter, like Calgary, and also a muddy brown snow winter, like in Ottawa. I feel like for a long time self driving cars won't be able to handle unplowed streets and will have to get the human to do anything truly difficult.



One issue with self driving cars in snow climates, at least in the area I live in, is that in addition to the issues that come with snow covered roads in the winter, the painted lines are often mostly or completely faded come spring and are not fully repainted until months after the snow has melted.
