Maybe to distract from the story that they use remote drivers after one of their cars hit a kid? [1]

The child did not die, and suffered only minor injuries: https://abc7.com/post/california-teamsters-call-suspension-w...

Under the same circumstances (kid suddenly emerging between two parked cars and running out onto the street), it could be debated that the outcome could have been worse if a human were driving.

It’s awful a child was hit, but they only suffered minor injuries [1]. Nowhere in your linked article does it say they were killed.
