“This is it. We’re dead. We’re going to die right here in the Waymo.”
This combined with another recent article from some insiders at Tesla saying, along the lines, “You couldn’t pay me to let one of these things drive me somewhere.”
And yet I still know people who are just so chuffed about “never having to drive again.”
EDIT: Comments have pointed out that this story is, at best, overblown and semi-fabricated otherwise. Take it with a massive grain of salt. But feel free to discuss self-driving, waymo, etc in the comments!
These things have cameras inside and out. And they’re branded. So you’re going to have a record of the thing going nuts and the cops are probably not going to shoot passengers in a waymo, that’s a PR nightmare.
For waymo, not the cops. That’s just a Tuesday for Statesian police.
Almost every single police shooting of a person still in their vehicle is a “PR nightmare”. If that’s all it took to stop this from happening it wouldn’t have happened again after the first time.
