I don't disagree, but I've heard these self driving cars are extremely over cautious, and tend to hold up traffic because they're waiting for a safe time to turn across a lane, for example. I imagine this level of caution would needlessly trigger the emergency brake quite often, and likely cause more accidents and injuries than it prevents.
- kevinventullo 8y agoSo then shouldn't the answer be not to disable the e-brake, but to conclude that the tech is not ready for testing in public where pedestrians' lives are at stake?
- darkpuma 8y agoObviously yes but that wouldn't be moving fast and breaking things. If companies aren't allowed to do that, then their SV competitive advantage evaporates.
