This is super cool! I'm wondering how the car would react if:

* someone parked on the side opens their door too quickly and collide with the zoox car.

* there is a car not moving in front, and the zoox car cannot see what's in the other lane without backing to get more insight

I'm also super impressed at how it can understand where the lane is in this 5 lane intersection that crosses a tram line. Even I couldn't understand where I would have had to drive!

This is actually one of those things that's easier for an AV than a human since they have localization and full lane maps of the city.
