Don't you drive using primarily visual input?

Visual input combined with a lot of mental projection and inference and understanding/experience and good split second decision making.

Examples: How does a FSD vehicle use it's camera to identify "black ice" on an overpass? How does it identify that a heavy truck tire has just exploded in it's lane a few cars ahead on the freeway? Or how about a bumper dropped from a car ahead or a large truck losing it's load?

All these and more have happened to me and I lived to tell about it.
