“2 autonomous Cruise vehicles & an empty San Francisco police vehicle were blocking the only exits from the scene, according to one of the reports, forcing the ambulance to wait while first responders attempted to manually move the Cruise vehicles or locate an officer who could move the police car.”
Well it's a good thing they didn't listen to the many first responders who have been saying this exact thing would happen for a long time and just let company PR spin some shit about "but it's safer!! (maybe....someday.....)"

All of this has been classic nasty nerd racism, which is very similar to nasty nerd misogyny, etc etc decades of portraying nerds as little smol bean’s fighting the world has genuinely convinced people nothing they do can be wrong because they’re under “underdogs” of life.
