She says “as a protest against their incursion into public spaces.” and claims “the delivery robots pose a hazard to people with mobility issues.”

Could it be because they should not be using the footpaths?

What is the maximum number of robots that can we actually allow on the footpaths?

At what point will footpaths be considered unusable due to robot traffic?
