Self-driving car accidents: Robot drivers are ‘odd, and that’s why they get hit’
&quot;Humans violate the rules in a safe and principled way....&quot;<p>Thanks, it&#x27;s nice to start my morning with a good laugh.<p>Maybe the author lives in some magical wonderland filled with good drivers, but this is not what I observe at all. People drift out of their lane for no reason. They careen past the stop line because they can&#x27;t be bothered to push the brake pedal a bit farther down. They refrain from signaling because they just don&#x27;t care. They blast through stop signs and red lights without heed to traffic or pedestrians. They brake spontaneously in the middle of a fast moving road. They drive fast in dangerous conditions and slow in safe conditions. They <i>spend half their drive texting because they think they&#x27;re the one person on the planet who is able to safely text and drive</i>. How is any of that safe or principled?
