Robotaxi Safety: What the Industry Isn’t Telling the Public A new Senate report from Sen. Edward Markey is pulling back the curtain on the robotaxi industry, and what it reveals is alarming. Despite bold claims of “self‑driving” technology, autonomous vehicle companies still rely heavily on human remote operators, while refusing to disclose how often those humans have to step in to prevent dangerous situations. Witherite Law Group founder and traffic safety attorney Amy Witherite has been sounding the alarm as safety incidents involving robotaxis continue to pile up, from cars driving the wrong way near schools to stalled vehicles blocking emergency responders. “These companies are racing to expand before the rules can catch up,” Witherite warns. “The public deserves transparency—not to be used as a testing ground.” Read the link below to read the rest and learn what the Senate investigation uncovered, and why stronger oversight is urgently needed. https://lnkd.in/gVFc4vca
