There isn’t always a “side of the road” tho. (think tunnels, walls, Old Towns, busy city centres...)

Tunnels are perhaps the only "no stopping" situation where there is nowhere to pull over. Luckily, tunnels are also the absolute simplest self-driving scenario.

Tunnels have to kept clear of obstacles. If an SDC would have to stop, so would a human-driven car.

For the others, stopped cars are very common.

So long as "bail to a human" doesn't take long e.g. 5 seconds to connect to an operator, it might not need to pull aside at all.
