"Given a completely unexpected scenario, a human will try something, anything, unconsciously drawing on all past experience. JohnnyCab, on the other hand, will probably display a divide by zero error and stop working."

Humans keep trying to press on regardless. Johnnycab will probably simply stop and wait.

One of the single biggest causes of urban congestion is the twat who attempts to run his car through a gap and then realises he won't fit. (or worse, thinks he won't fit, when he's got feet to spare).

If cars are communicating with each other and XYZ delivery driver blocks a narrow lane, they should reroute around the blockage instead of all backing up up behind it as meatsacks do.
