Yes, but on the other hand the current approach of self training and largely ignoring edge cases hasn't yet turned out to work well enough. Emphasis on "yet", OK, but I wouldn't be quite so dismissive. Sticking the equivalent of 5 cent RFID tags on curbs every so many metres wouldn't cost a trillion dollars.
It’s a waste of time and money, unless you embed a tag in every human and dog.
And keep in mind that it probably costs $50 to install each of those 5 cent tags. And what do you do if a car has a tag, but then it double parks and leaves the driver’s door open?
