Sorry, a human driver fatally hit a pedestrian, then a SFPD car was blocking the ambulance from leaving with the injured person? and we're going to make this story about the dangers of Cruise cars? I'm all for complaining if the cruise car did something wrong, but vehicles get disabled in the road all the time for various reasons.
- flutas 3y ago> Two autonomous Cruise vehicles and an empty San Francisco police vehicle were blocking the only exits from the scene, (...), forcing the ambulance to wait while first responders attempted to manually move the Cruise vehicles or locate an officer who could move the police car. aka the SFPD car was probably there, and cruise cars stalled, blocking the exit so they had to find someone to move one of the 3 cars, 2 being cruise.
- f5e4 3y agoI don't think that SFPD should need to anticipate in their emergency response that 2 lanes would be blocked by 2 different Cruise vehicles. Do you also take issue with the Fire Department blocking 2 lanes to shield the patients from oncoming traffic? The deflection is just weird to me. Can we only discuss issues with self-driving cars once they've replaced human drivers fully?
