I fucking despise them. They don't solve any problems. They're dangerous as objects on the road. They can get stuck in loops. They are ridiculously expensive to maintain. They are an integrated surveillance system. They don't even know how to truly drive; Waymo cheats by giving them maps, and the second that map no longer applies they fail miserably. They're dangerous to construction workers. They enable morons to drive and get away with it for long periods of time before disaster strikes, and when it strikes, someone else dies not the moron in the "driver's" seat.

Self driving cars are a replacement for classic public transport that is worse in every conceivable way.
