In the Netherlands, blocking a bike lane for passenger drop-off is a traffic violation, full stop. The "too high a bar" answer reveals exactly which users Waymo designed for. This isn't a technical limitation. It's a values choice baked in from the start.

@Dany@hsnl.social Not smashing the windows in if it cuts me off in the bike lane is too high of a bar for me. @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com

@Dany@hsnl.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com There's one reason why these proliferated in the US: corruption. Since you probably have the same problem in the UK, you have to go after these things hard.

@Dany@hsnl.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com For interurban mobility we can also predict that those pushing for such tech will lobby to make building intersection-free roads mandatory between all towns and cities (basically motorways everywhere even if they're oversized for local traffic needs) to make them easier to be used by so-called autonomous cars. Basically anything other than transitioning to a less extractive transportation system combining decent public transportation with bikes and other vehicles that trade speed for simplicity.

@Dany@hsnl.social @notjustbikes@social.notjustbikes.com I hope people in bikes learn how to hop the bike up on and over the driverless cars, causing damage.
