Another major point people miss is that once you leave the city it's all edge cases. Roads don't have lane markings and non vehicle traffic is more common. Tech companies constantly miss these areas because you build for what you know. The US isn't all SoCal and Texas
Yeah I live on a snowy dirt road on a mountain side lol.
Hell, once you go deep into the city, it's a bunch of edge cases. Old, large cities with weird, complicated intersections and 5-10 signs next to it to explain the rules on how it works. Expansion is messy, and not all roads are perfect grids with stoplights and 4-way traffic.
