Those cars were nowhere near ready to be on the roads. And given how fast the program spun up there’s no way the drivers were properly trained and vetted. I personally had several run-ins with the Uber cars in San Francisco before they got their California registrations revoked. I worked on 3rd in soma and saw them out as I would walk to lunch. They didn’t even try to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks during right turn on red (when pedestrians clearly have right of way). I had more than one near miss. I shouted at the driver and he grabbed the wheel in panic. He went around the block to try again and the car did exactly the same thing. It was like they were blind to anything smaller than a car. Uber knew it too, because the failure to yield was reported to Uber in person at their garage on 3rd and Harrison. Uber (and anyone who behaves like that) has no business running a self-driving program. If they start the program back up I guarantee they will continue to kill pedestrians. If you see one coming get away quick. I speak from personal experience and I’m not joking even a little bit.
