This is some crazy mental gymnastics.

I’ve seen them around in London - they are incredibly slow. There’s no way they’ll succeed here - speed is important for getting around.

This is what happens when people who live in a bubble automatically assume what works there must scale and make economic sense to the rest of the world.

Average driving speeds in London are already very low. How can they possibly be sufficiently slower as to be noticeable?

		Do Waymos move off and brake in the same manner as humans? Nope. They can’t take any gambles - in a tight congested traffic area the difference adds up. It’s idiots like you who are ultra pro waymo that’ll make Everyone else worse off.
