This is your city on driverless cars.

A blackout in San Francisco yesterday cut power to traffic lights. Drivers coped; Waymos just stopped moving, often in intersections, stranding passengers and compounding gridlock.

@straphanger

so not one techbro genius thought this would happen

not one

waymo needs to be held accountable for any outcomes - death injury loss of property etc - for shit like this

@samiamsam Pretty much the only way a stopped car can cause any of that is if some moron crashes into it, but okay.
