Re: Autonomous cars and other road users
" if you're close enough to be able to actually see the driver's facial expressions, then you're arguably too close already..."
Tell me you've never ridden a bike on the road without telling etc..
On a bike, you look at car driver's eyes ALL the time! Drivers pulling out of junctions (either way) or turning right (thus crossing the road in the UK) are prime examples. You then know when a driver has actually seen you. Of course, this doesn't guarantee they won't still pull out in front of you anyway, because: They misjudge your speed and think they have plenty of time, or they know that *you* have also seen them and will brake because you would prefer to avoid getting flattened today...
