This video arrives well in the context of Ontario's Premier Ford pushing stupid ideas like removing bike lanes would improve traffic. Autonomous roads are car and car-subscription selling policy, not a safety policy. In the US, considering some billionaire auto industry technocrat is likely to get a high position in the upcoming government, hold onto your butts for more insanity along these lines. It's up to communities to defend and improve infrastructure in their cities.
Or maybe Ontarians should see the terrible choices Doug has made and elect a better premiere, but that seems liketoo much to ask for given how he's already been reelected once.
