Statistical analysis of the tourThe analysis of the data collected during the tour allowed to compute a number of statistics on the system performance. In particular, for each leg of the tour the average and the maximum speed of the vehicle during automatic driving have been computed. The average speed has been strongly influenced by the heavy traffic conditions (especially on Torino's and Milano's rings) and by the presence of toll stations, junctions, and road works. The automatic driving percentage and the maximum distance automatically driven show high values despite the presence of many tunnels (particularly in the appenninic legs Ancona-Roma and Firenze-Bologna) and of several stretches of road with absent or worn lane markers (Ferrara-Ancona and Ancona-Roma) or with no lane markings at all (Firenze-Bologna).
