Question

Read the following paragraph from the section "Some Gestures Are Too Complex For Cars.

" Company officials have pointed out that self-driving cars still "don't understand certain complex situations such as a construction worker communicating using hand gestures."

Which of the following can be inferred from the paragraph above?
A Self-driving cars will eliminate the need for construction workers to direct traffic.
B Self-driving cars may have trouble adapting to unexpected or unfamiliar situations.
C Self-driving cars will perform complex forms of communication with humans.
D Self-driving cars may not be the best choice of vehicle to use for construction jobs.

Answer 1

B. Self-driving cars may have trouble adapting to unexpected or unfamiliar situations.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given paragraph, the inference is that though self-driving cars may be a relief for many, they are not compatible with all scenarios. One such example is when navigating certain complex situations like a construction worker communicating using hand gestures.

This means that self-driving cars will not be able to understand the hand gestures which normal human drivers can. So, in this case, this may have more trouble adapting to unexpected or unfamiliar situations.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
