Two Cruise driverless taxis blocked an ambulance carrying a critically injured patient who later died at a hospital, a San Francisco Fire Department report said, in another incident involving self-driving cars in the city.
On Aug. 14, two Cruise autonomous vehicles were stopped in the right two lanes of a four-lane, one-way street in the SoMa neighborhood, where the victim was found, according to the department report. It said that a police vehicle in another lane had to be moved in order for the ambulance to leave.
The only comparison chart I could find miles driven with AV safety was a 2020 graph that showed you were safer with autopilot off than on. Maybe that’s improved but most accidents are weird events and computers don’t handle weird shit as well.
