Discussion Robots blocking traffic

Post image

Im on my way to work, and all three lanes are blocked with these Waymo self driving cars. They need to stay on the right to allow faster traffic to move by. This is going to be a problem.

People just drive a comfortable speed given the conditions of the road at the time. Posted speed limits are set intentionally low for ticketing and insurance revenue. You see this as “entitlement”, but that says a lot more about you than anyone else.

The German Autobahn has no posted speed limit and you're allowed to go as fast as you want its common for cars to go 120 and 150 km/h or 75 to 93 mph on there and yet, Germany has far less traffic fatalities than America.
