    It’s funny how everyone is getting riled up about this story. You’re only hearing about it because it’s unusual. Over 100 people die on the road every day in America, die at the hands of human drivers, not bots.

    Flip it around. Wouldn’t this seem an odd story if a pedestrian or driver caused this accident? No one would care.

      there is nothing funny and your argument is weak. This is a new risk which comes into play, producing entirely new deaths/injuries, which previously weren’t be produced. It is pretty obvious that introducing such risk for the benefit of “cheaper/faster ramen delivery” is worth considering seriously

      How any cars are there one the road everyday? And how many of these “robots”? Put it in perspective.
