You have untrained people using multi-ton motorized equipment on streets where people cross. And you don't even ask them if they'd be okay with this experiment. At least a bit unethical.
Seems like a low bar to me - for both robots and humans. We should instead raise the standards even higher for both!
Exactly, the point I’ve been trying to emphasize is:
The bar to become a driver in California is really LOW. We should push for the robots to be even better, but given the low bar for humans, I don’t see a good reason to stop them from training on public roads.
