Just for the record... This video was shot in March 2007 during a testing period and there was almost always a safety driver. Often there was another person in the car with a computer. The best truly autonomous runs can be seen in the site visit video in June 2007 and the NQE runs from October 2007. Thank you for watching!

It's an optical illusion I'd say. Or either they told it they didn't want it to stop at that sign. If you watch this vehicle in the race it operates and stops at all intersections that I saw video footage of. It'd also have not won the race if it blew through a stop sign like that. So I tend to think that the sign is indeed facing another way.

hahaha, I didn't notice that. That's hilarious! ..and quite dangerous too. Good thing it looked like a closed course.

the stop sign is facing the other way (ie not toward the entrance ramp). watch it again.

I've looked a bunch of times, the truck drives right by it and the stop sign looks like it's for the road the truck is on (plus, you can see the white line and see the truck drive over that too...)

Don't be ridiculous. Not only there's no one there on the video, but they'd have no reason to go through all this just for a fake video.

Are you not human? :-o
