any frequent stop vehicles should be using them! city cabs, buses, delivery trucks, post office, etc.

I know the initial investment is high, but given these types of vehicles run for decades it will easily pay for itself.

Maybe we will get a Trader Joe’s in town yet!

Uber robo taxis. What could go wrong

 

[J Alynn]

I'm honestly surprised there aren't more electric-based cab companies. Maybe that's because with Uber/Lyft they use the contractor loophole for their drivers, so they can't really require a specific vehicle. But it's seemed like a no-brainer to me for years - Eco-Cab, Green Cab, etc.

Majority of the black cab company taxis in London were electric

Yep. Mostly Volvo underpinnings.

Not as beholden to the oil lobby. Maybe one day we'll be free.

Sounds like we need to send them a multi billion dollar care package to keep them running!

No money involved with the care package we have been sending. So far, it's been BIG bombs. And rising gas prices for the American Citizens.

I was supposed to go to this event as I’m apart of the APA but had work related issues that I couldn’t go but here’s a very great and detailed video about the Scout.

Thanks for sharing. Will find time this weekend to watch this

Hate to need natural gas for electrical production or home heating once we no longer need oil for vehicles - right now it is mostly a waste byproduct of oil production. Oil is more profitable, so that is what is drilled for - gas is something that just has to be dealt with. Honestly, it is an expensive byproduct - if you consider the infrastructure that was necessary to remove it from the oil fields - and the fact that it is very hard to ship from those oil fields since the prior administration put a halt to every new LNG terminal proposed. Meanwhile, not in my backyard, a little help from the administration, and Covid killed virtually every major pipeline project.

Just the other day I watched a model x on FSD (it's like LSD but for vehicles) try to change lanes into a utility trailer towed by a pickup truck. The driver had to fight the system to avoid a crash.

The lazy programming, anti-LIDAR nonsense, and arrogant stance of the brand is doing more to delay automated driving technology than if they had taken the more careful, steady route.

"Slow is smooth, smooth is fast."

Tesla is one step away from having to recall FSD in NHTSA visibility crash probe

NHTSA escalated its Tesla FSD investigation to an Engineering Analysis covering 3.2M vehicles after finding the system fails to detect degraded visibility from glare and fog.

Thats what happens when you go all AI learning. Thats what Teslas are deep down, AI learning machines on wheels that don't learn.

Finally found time to watch this. Stumbled onto it on my own then remembered you posted it. Was really good. Worth the time to watch
