Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Can't wait for them to cut the human fleet in half once they see how many crashes people cause!
Damn if only there were a way to get around in San Francisco that wasn't driving or being driven!
So, how many other car crashes happened in the same time frame?
These crashes are all by the same "driver". If one person crashed two cars in a day, don't you think they should stop driving for a bit?
Hm, that's actually a pretty good analogy. I haven't thought of it that way before.
No it's not. If that one person crashed twice after 500 trips and everyone else is crashing once after 200 trips, I'm still taking the person whose average crashes is more than two times less often.
Not if they did significantly more trips than the chances of a normal person crashing twice.
You know how many trips these cars drive per day? Please enlighten us. If you don't have any sources, stop making things up with no evidence.
I mean, that argument could work both ways right?
How is that in any way comparable?
Don’t think we or they (autonomous vehicles.) are ready for it…
The only way they ever will be is with lots and lots of training.
They are more ready than human drivers.
