Not one or the other. But cities in the States are obviously car centric. No need to panic if you need to drive a car, you’ll be fine 🇺🇸

this is greatly overblown. People are just upset there's nobody to flip off when there's one of the usual traffic jams. If you want to blame someone people ought to blame all the nimbyism in the Bay Area for not having enough freeway capacity.

The tech is not sound, its just a square being hamfisted into a triangle slot.

When I was hit by a car there was a driver in it without a drivers license or insurance. Nothing is 100% safe. People sabotaging the driverless cars are causing more problems than the cars themselves.

I’m 73 years old and live in the Bay Area. I really have a hard time understanding the benefit of having driverless taxis other than the fact that these companies are taking away jobs from people just trying to make a living. For a Democratic Party that supposedly champions the little people, I find this so ironic.

You are correct. They serve no other purpose than to put people out of work and make tech swindlers lots of money from investors as well as local and State government officials getting bribes and cuts of the pie for giving the go ahead. It's a scam.

Don't use these. All someone has to do is program the car. To lock you in and drive you somewhere you not supposed to go. Dangerous and ridiculous. Oh by the way. Each car has a camera in eat. With a remote operator at base.

Sure, but each remote operator is probably controlling a dozen or more cars. And if he needs to take a break for 5 minutes, the cars are on their own. Also, what happens when the network crashes?

[chuckle] Many sci fi writers assume that human driven cars will be banned.

No matter how good technology gets, even in 100% ideal perfect conditions, it can only react to what it is seeing, react to problems it has caused, or react to an accident already happening. A human driver can use their judgement to predict and anticipate.

It only takes a signal jammer to render them useless 😂

Nice video! I wonder when they will begin operations again. You must have been exhausted.

San Francisco: lenient on store robberies, people pooping on public sidewalks, hobo camps overtaking neighborhoods Also SF: "You know what this city needs? Autonomous cars." 💀

I agree that was a terrible idea to have driver-less cars. It's an impressive invention I'll admit, but look at how much went wrong based on these clips. I felt uncomfortable riding in a driver-less train before in Atlanta's airport. If something malfunctioned, and the train stopped how would have we gotten out? Anyway, I'm thankful I don't live in San Francisco, but that's more so because of its too many hills, over-priced homes/items, and increased crime.

Crime is the biggest problem in SF not self driving taxis.

My wife’s brother test drove them and he said they’re OVER CAUTIOUS. He said people were honking, throwing coffee cups and whatever they could find on their dashboards at him. And the car is too easy to manipulate. All you have to do is stand in front of it or put a cone in front of it and it will basically sit there until the battery dies. Easy way to rob any passengers.

Then there is a people problem to address not a self-driving-car problem

A broken leg isn’t life-threatening, so that statement from Drew is not comforting.

It might be driverless, but it should still have a driver behind the wheel to make sure that it is running correctly and it doesn't block traffic. Also, they look like they park funny too. And it won't be long before they get hacked, and if that happens they will be shut down while they are diving someone or they will be out of control.

That defeats the point.

The main issues we cannot address is infrastructure. In Boston, there is a small LED signal on every traffic light that flashes when an emergency vehicle is in the area. Easy solution. Guiding sensors on roads and streets are needed to make these drive safer and more streamline. It is common sense.

Suspend the company. These cars need further testing.

That was the SF fire chief? I wonder how many injured people she carried out of a burning building.

My guess is that the technology is not yet 100% there but will be sooner or later. I think it is more what the people are doing around the cars what is confusing there programming and stopping them.
