@jbz We don't need "driverless" cars. What we need is plentiful and cheap public transport, in walkable and bikeable cities.
Driverless cars, and electric cars are not the answer to anything other than the profitability of huge corporations.
They are not the answer to road safety, to destroying the environment, or to making our cities more pleasant to live in.
@jbz
We aren't they banned?
Why are Corporations not held to the same standards as regular people?
The managers should be prosecuted!
@jbz been a while since I gouged a hole in a sidewall, but I have a pretty sweet knife I’d like to try out.
@jbz @aspensmonster well that is simple then, they should not be legally permitted until they reach that bar. Problem solved.
@jbz For me to have the restraint not to spray-paint the fuckers' cameras? Sorry man, too high a bar, too.
