I saw the Tesla Robotaxi:

  • Drive into oncoming traffic, getting honked at in the process.
  • Signal a turn and then go straight at a stop sign with turn signal on.
  • Park in a fire lane to drop off the passenger.

And that was in a single 22 minute ride. Not great performance at all.

    Parking in a fire lane to drop off a passenger just makes it seem more human.

      Yea, this one isn’t an issue. If you are dropping off passengers, you are allowed to stop in a fire lane because that is not parking.

        Which brings up an interesting question, when is a driverless car ‘parked’ vs. ‘stopped’?

          When the engine is off?

          Of course, how to tell this with an electric car?

            Yeah, tell that to police who bust people with DUIs when the engine is still off.
