I guess the 1.5 drivers per Cruise car was a lie, that must've included other operations people (I assume like people keeping the servers running etc.) because new article saysquote:As far as the ratio of remote assistance advisors to driverless vehicles on the road, the Cruise spokesperson said, “During driverless operations there was roughly 1 remote assistant agent for every 15-20 driverless AVs.”

The Cruise CEO or someone was on hacker news a couple days ago saying something like "cars only request intervention 1-2% of the time they're driving and sometimes the vehicles proactively requested intervention early to be safe and it didn't end up being needed so the cars don't really need much human intervention at all" and it's like... no actually that's a completely absurd amount of manual intervention for an allegedly self driving car

2% of a 2 hour drive is 2 mins and 40 seconds of someone communicating directions with your car via tremendous input lag because the car thinks its too unsafe to make its own decisions

Tbh I heard drivers argue that speed limits are unsafe because they force drivers to look at their speedometer and not the road, so we should have someone supervising everyone behind the wheel just in case.

We should implement a speed governor on all cars then so you physically can't go over the limit. That way you don't need to monitor it yourself.

You don't narrowly avoid a collision by twisting the throttle and then immediately go trade your bike in for a supercharged Kawasaki H2R. We bought our bikes because they're fast and it's more fun to go fast on a bike than in a car. Let's be adults about this. And the closest call I've ever had on the road was when someone in an SUV turned left in front of me (from a sidestreet into the opposite direction of traffic, not from head-on) and stopped when they saw me. Acceleration isn't even a factor but I've got big brass balls and I'm goddamn Kevin Schwantz on the brakes, that's what saved me from slamming into their left rear door.

I like it when drivers let you know to just completely avoid them by doing poo poo like run their wipers at full speed when it was raining ten minutes ago.
