Isn't the point to test automatic cars under real conditions? Google did this years ago. With hand-picked, pre-mapped roads, but still under real conditions with real human-driven traffic. Remember the euro search engine? The euro book digitizing project? Every time Germany/EU tries to copy what Google does, only years later, by government decree and without Google, the result is the same. Burnt money. Next thing they will try to ban undeutsche autonomous cars from deutsche autobahn.
German (and others) scientists did that years before Google even existed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eureka_Prometheus_Project
PROMETHEUS profited from the participation of Ernst Dickmanns, the 1980s pioneer of driverless cars, and his team at Bundeswehr Universität München, collaborating with Daimler-Benz. A first culmination point was achieved in 1994, when their twin robot vehicles VaMP and VITA-2 drove more than one thousand kilometers on a Paris multi-lane highway in standard heavy traffic at speeds up to 130 km/h. They demonstrated autonomous driving in free lanes, convoy driving, automatic tracking of other vehicles, and lane changes left and right with autonomous passing of other cars.
