At what point can we be spared from having Waymos lessons inflicted upon us
- JumpCrisscross 10mo ago> At what point can we be spared from having Waymos lessons inflicted upon us Again, we had a real event happen. Not hypothetical. What was the actual cost inflicted?
- merely-unlikely 10mo agoWhen humans can cause fewer accidents and fatalities than Waymo on average. People are still inflicting those lessons on us.
- s1artibartfast 10mo agoWhenever they become so much a problem that they counterbalance public and private interests in having and improving robotaxis. For most people, we are nowhere near that.
- autoexec 10mo agoWhen we learn our lesson that letting companies beta test on public roads consequence free is just another cost to the rest of us so that a small number of people can enrich themselves at our expense.
- SR2Z 10mo agoIn this country, if heart disease or cancer doesn't kill you, a car probably did. Until "Waymos lessons" are killing people at that rate, I am 100% OK with a Waymo making my trips an extra 5 minutes longer every 50th trip or whatever else the real stat is. I was curious if Waymo has even been involved with a crash that killed someone, so I looked it up. The answer is yes - there was a Tesla going 98mph in SoMa whose driver died after hitting a Waymo. Clearly the Waymo's fault!
