I do not like this at all. Gotta have some failsafes in there somewhere for the human.

They always say the cars aren't at fault. I avoid 5 or 10 accidents a year that wouldn't have been my fault.

< I prefer this instead! In there, You are a captured human. The steering wheel symbolizes Control. You know this concept has got to screw up somewhere, sometime.

I have one in mind. I ain't getting in that sucker.

F that. My wife says she worked at Burgerville as a teen. She would make those so tall she would get yelled at.

The more I hear about your wife the more I think she's not your wife, just a very nice lady you're keeping imprisoned in your house.

Abused she is. Couldn't fit the whole lot in the picture

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Don't mind those empty hangers. She won't neglect them for long.

Nice try but I'm pretty sure I've seen your drag act on Fremont Street.

Puts your Bobyman moniker in a whole new light.

I don't think I've ever seen a dress in my size

My wife had me convert a bedroom into a closet with built ins and racks. She still has another bedroom devoted to clothes and sewing. Once a year I have to lug containers out of the attic. She has gobs of shoes. Married men with construction experience are screwed.

Lucky for me my wife hates clutter and storing things.

We agree here...I don't even like elevators

 

[MarAzul]

I kind a think perhaps that's best?

If they were in high demand that would be pretty bad.

Think about this y'all...

People said the same things about elevators.

The only difference between the two is the distance the machine takes you.

People will one day day the same things about teleporters.

.I don't even like elevators

People said the same things about elevators.

I said it

 

[dviss1]

I mean, how else are you getting to Portland City Grill?

Elevators and autonomous cars aren't remotely similar other than being machines that carry people.

The elevator doesn't occupy the same space as people on old fashioned stairs. These cars are being put on public roads with millions of other cars.

If every road was emptied of regular cars tomorrow and all the autonomous cars had transmitters broadcast their location we wouldn't even need traffic lights if we built pedestrian bridges everywhere.

Now, an autonomous car driving in regular traffic can't think for itself to avoid a collision. I could drive on a sidewalk or into an empty lot to avoid hitting a kid that runs out in the road.

What will your autonomous car do in that situation?

 

[dviss1]

Now, an autonomous car driving in regular traffic can't think for itself to avoid a collision.

So you're saying that even with the simplest of autonomous safety features we aren't able to avoid collisions?

Once again, not even remotely similar. Not even related to this thread.

I just drove a Honda Hrv with an electronic emergency brake that had a computer malfunction where it wouldn't release the brake for no apparent reason.

They can't even make simple shit foolproof yet.

I'm certified to repair Teslas that were in a collision. That car can kill me just working on it.
