For instance, the car might inexplicably brake and block the path of an oncoming emergency vehicle. A human driver or passenger may need to react rapidly to prevent a collision. To help humans better anticipate a vehicle’s mistakes, researchers from MIT and autonomous vehicle technology company Motional devel…
