- HPsquared 1y agoYou could still have pedestrian crossings with buttons etc which signal the cars to stop, just the same logic as we have now. Maybe even physical lights for redundancy. Pedestrians are pretty rare in most places though so this shouldn't slow things down too much.
- Moomoomoo309 1y agoAnd if the button doesn't work, what should pedestrians do?
- seanmcdirmid 1y agoWalk? Waymo already stops at crosswalks (marked or unmarked) if a pedestrian looks like they are crossing or starting to cross. That is more than I can say for human drivers. I’m confused why you don’t think this is just a win for pedestrians given how messed up things are now.
- xnx 1y agoMore likely that Waymo's will make it a paradise for pedestrians. It should be possible to cross any road at any point without so much as looking either way.
- kmacleod 1y agoMy Tesla FSD v14 will wait for any pedestrian stepping or approaching stepping into the road.
