I so deeply want Tesla to release automated vehicles with no drivers or observers in them. I'm sure that a company that has had it's dealerships get attacked will have no problem with cars on the road unaccompanied.

Something tells me the people they run over will have some issues with this approach.

I still don’t know what’s going to happen when people get injured or killed by them. Tesla certainly won’t pay for it with their infinite lawyer money, so are these people just screwed?

I don't think they could use the auto disconect "now it's the drivers fult" defence. so they would need to ether blame the other party, the city or the rider.

If I'm reading this right Tesla are trying to stop freedom of information requests to the city. Doge was also difficult to foi request as they dont have clue what transparency is. You can't be transparent only when you what to.
