  • Amazon subsidiary @zoox will offer rides in its purpose-built, electric, autonomous robotaxis on public streets in Las Vegas later this year.
    I got to climb inside one at @CES to see how it feels inside an autonomous vehicle built without pedals or a steering wheel.

    FYI we are in our 70s and can hardly wait for full self driving. Lots of seniors don't drive so well and have a hard time at night. FSD empowers us. We travel a lot. FSD is 20 times safer than we are. Who wants to wreck their car or get tickets. In some places they give tickets to you for being from out of state. Pretty hard to ticket a machine that always follows the law and has a recording.
    This taxi is cool. It will help aot of people who can't or shouldn't drive.

    I would much prefer to ride like this facing family or friends to replace my car completely. But it makes less sense with Uber style taxiing with random people as you don’t need to face them.. though I suppose buses and trains still have that layout often and it seems fine.

    Form factor it looks more suited for a Boring Tunnel then the current Tesla vehicle. The Boring Tunnel definitely need to think about a personal transport pod that much easier to get in and out of, as opposed to a conventional car. Unless the whole point of the Boring Tunnels is to familiarise people to teslas vehicles, just like what IBM did with there typewriter in the typing classrooms.

    Some questions I wish had been asked. What does this thing do if involved with a road rager? What happens when, and it will have accidents? Passenger emergency. Will it sit and wait for an ambulance or drive to the nearest hospital? Will an adult always be required if a child rides? I can see these being used to get kids to school. Are people with disabilities with a certified dog allowed? Still a great look into the near future.

      I drive very carefully. I'm not a good driver, just a careful one. I always let everyone go ahead. Don't mind people cutting in front of my. I drive slowly so cutting usually isn't even an issue. I NEVER have issues with road ragers. I imagine it'd be the same for robo cars.
