Each time the Cruise starts from a stop light, it's too slow.

Every time ... cars pass it, and dive into its lane (a typical reaction to slow moving vehicles).

Still, nice accomplishment.

It's hard to tell for sure what's happening in a sped up video like this, but starting slower than other cars at the light isn't necessarily a bad thing, depending on just how slow they're going. Going hard off the line is extremely inefficient for very little benefit. Autonomous cars correcting that habit could be good.

This is a pro, not a con. Slamming on the accelerator is a bad behavior that self driving cars will be correcting.
