When even an Asian person is critiquing the driving then you know it’s bad 🫣
Who stops to gas or charge it up
Liability for accidents will be a TOUGH situation. If you hit a driverless car, that's easy. But what if it hits YOU? What if a passenger is having a medical emergency, or just plain passes out? What about vandalism? Whether they're on camera or not, etc.
This good for military not civilians
I don’t trust them
Conned out of our dependable clunkers , to now ride shotgun while a faceless ,centralized authority determines where we travel ? No thanks , i can't fit into my better clothes, much less squeeze into a "slot car".
Should make road rage fun ….
Of course Cruise was not going to dona second interview after that, 😂😂😂.
Driverless cars makes no sense. Just stick with the basics. If you want to improve on technology, focus on how to reduce traffic congestion and emissions.
To each their own but I prefer to operate my vehicle, it provides pleasure.
Interesting times for us people who will hack into your board computer whole driving whahahahaha it is going to be soooooo much fun for us smart people ! !
DRIVERLESS CARS I need to add that to my list of STUPID HUMAN TRICKS
Homeless and Payless is a bigger problem than Driverless in San Francisco. Those reporter need s bring x10 more cameras to report real problems instead of cares about car stop on roads
Driverless cars are definitely ready to hit something alright 💥💥💥
that is a big NOPE , human driver or drive yourself
Nope lol
I'd like to point out that my car also "does not drive drunk" although it is of legal drinking age.
Unexpected construction zone?
So, just about everywhere.
Waay too early
I think this is being a bit to rushed where they don’t have enough data yet, for example from what I understand Tesla is taking their time with auto pilot to gather every bit of information of the roads and obstacles that can appear across every street in the United States
All this wicked mess that is going on is about control and to put people out of jobs they know this is not save but they will keep doing it because it is part of their agenda to have control.
I can’t wait. You people have absolutely NO business operating motor vehicles. I know you think you’re good at it. You’re not.
I saw one today, the person in the back seat left the car, it stopped on a railroad track before, everyone went nuts because car wasn’t moving at all.
I almost joined Cruise as a software engineer a few years ago.
These things have a long road ahead to be safe and trusted.
The best solution at the moment is,
Driverless only roads and roads with digital infrastructure (sensors and such) which would help the driverless car make a decision
What insurance company is writing policies for driverless cars?
Not as long as human drivers are still around. Even the experienced human drivers will make unpredictable and emotional decisions at some point, because of our biological limitations. On the other hand, each AI-controlled or driverless vehicle will transmit signals to supervise each other in a highly-controlled system
If self driving cars can AVOID people and dangerous situations, you can GUARANTEE that the US Military has robotics that SEEK people and can cause a great deal of harm to humans ~ its the other side of the coin the Fed Gov doesn't want you to see. How about automated cars for highways only – and NOT inside cities ~ jezuz people, what do you think will happen when Skynet finally takes over (and yes, Skynet its a real thing, not a movie plot)
No
Keep them off the roads
So if a driverless car hits another car does that make the owner responsible for damages ?
1:33 misleading statements to push a narrative. The Numbers given was total count, not a comparable rate. it is like saying For regular cars it is 216,366 crashes in California just the past year (2022)! The number should factor in market share of EV to internal combustion as well as miles driven. Otherwise it is comparing apples to oranges.
No. Come on. Even if there was only one accident of a driverless car accidently hitting a pedestrian or running a red light, that's still one too many. That means we still have things to work out, and the science and automation still need to be fine-tuned. At least with human drivers, there are consequences and accountability to accidents.
