Exactly! They just focus on the one thing that they see as important and screw everything else.
One solution would be to grant free reign without liability for fire & police take any measures they see fit at the moment to solve the problem. If it trashes the driverless vehicle, too bad (and oh yes, the cleanup cost is billed to the driverless car company).
After a few 100K write-offs, maybe the companies will pay attention and actually look at the problem.
- AlotOfReading 3y agoI assure you that there are entire teams of engineers at both of these companies burning the midnight oil to address these problems already. They're definitely not being ignored.

In my part of the US, they absolutely have this. If you park your car in front of a fire hydrant and firefighters need to hook a hose up to it, they can and will do whatever is needed to make that happen, regardless of damage to the offending vehicle.
- toss1 3y agoYes, this (very proper) treatment of parked vehicles is exactly what I was considering. However, since we have not already heard of an incident like a fire truck forcefully pushing out of the way an errant driverless car, it seems that it also needs to be extended to such non-parked/non-diretly-human-controlled cars?
