    Why do driverless cars even have a horn installed? Take that shit out. It’s clearly a person only device.

      They’ll beep and backup a couple feet when a car in front reverses dangerously close, presumably as an alert to human drivers. Seems okay on paper.

      But in these parking lots waymo can’t negotiate a spot amongst themselves, leading to a chain reaction down the whole queue when the front car tries to pull into a spot, misses the mark, and has to back out/cut back into the line.

      What’s the reason humans need a horn installed in their car? Whatever it is, it’s the same reason for self-driving cars I guess.
