  • Making that argument completely closes the door for fully autonomous cars though, which is sort of the Holy grail of vehicle automation.

    Fully autonomous doesn’t really exist yet, aside from some pilot projects, but give it a decade or two and it will be there. Truly being a passenger in your own vehicle is a huge selling point, you’d be able to do something else while moving, like reading, working or sleeping.

    These systems can probably be better drivers than humans, because humans suck at multitasking and staying focused. But they will never be 100% perfect, because the world is sometimes wildly unpredictable and unavoidable accidents are a thing. There will be some interesting questions about liability though.















  • This is a very common Dutch design for bike racks. You use the vertical bar to chain your frame to.

    If your groceries are popping your front wheel up, you have a very awkward setup. I’ve only had that happen with very large/weird loads. Normal groceries should be over your rear axle, not behind it.

    Not all bikes are the same, but over here 90% of bikes are city bikes, and this rack accommodates that.
