AI automated enforcement offers an easily scalable solution for safety.

a comprehensive automated enforcement strategy as a scalable, unbiased way to save hundreds of lives each year—

Gonna have to say fuck right off with that. Rebuild roadways to be more bike and pedestrian friendly instead of picking up the Palantir.

Any time I hear anyone pushing driverless cars or AI without mentioning public transportation, bike lines, traffic calming, or walkability I know they are full of shit. Just like the people talking about EVs being better for the environment but never mention any plans for getting cars off the road. I want trains god damn it.

Sorry. Best we can give it is 363B in VC investment for self driving cars. Trains would be too expensive

That doesn’t count, everyone does that! Can I tell you about that guy I saw on a bike who blew through a stop sign?

-people driving a 2 ton car

Remember this when they tell you that automated driving is better than the average human driver. THIS is the average human driver.
