Gotta call BS on OP here. Anything time sensitive like self-driving cars absolutely has to be built on a real-time operating system. If you’re in the U.S. there are Dept of Transportation requirements to even be allowed to test drive the thing on any road surface other than your own driveway.

OP might mean "When I was a student working on a self driving car student project, which we mostly tested in simulation, occasionally on private land with a lot of extra safety precautions, and never on public roads"
1) It’s one of the biggest car manufacturers 2) It’s in the US 3) It’s in public roads (with a special testing permit and safety drivers)
