Just wait until they secretly replace the trained human safety operator with this:
I mean airplanes kinda don’t drive over people walking on a sidewalk…
While you’re at it make them pay extra for the amount trucking just fucking eats public infrastructure.
But rail infrastructure isn’t that good yet in north America.
If only there was a solution to that which keeps getting ignored
Why did they do this?
According to the article, safety concerns and job protection

Probably to protect jobs. They are willing to risk our lives in cities since they allow autonomous cars there. So it’s unlikely that they have safety concerns with trucks
This is an insanely bad decision.
They’ll just go secretive and underground like in that Simpsons episode
So California is down with the Decepticons?
Fuck Optimus Prime?
Bold move.
Sure, wouldn’t want them teaming up with the robo taxis already clogging SF streets.
Newsom has lost his mind with this one.
