The same applies to stopping it from driving full speed into a house.

It really really really doesn't

    If the car can't be trusted to know if it's on the highway or a residential street, it can't be trusted to know if it's on the highway or on a residential street in front of a house.

    I don't know what system would work for one but not the other.

    If your misunderstanding of how a machine works is that fundamental I don't think there's a reason to continue this.

    It's all the same type of software that would be used and it would sometimes break randomly for no clear reason no matter the use case. Why would they tackle detection differently between being on the highway, on a residential street or on a street in front of a house? The same edge cases would apply to each (like billboards or faulty GPS signal for example).
