      Not sure what they’re trying to show though.

      You also can render a human driven car immobile but standing in front of it and have a buddy come up from behind. And what does that prove other than you’re asshole? I don’t see how this activism is different.

        Please check the date on the article.

        Last I checked, “August 26, 2023” was not two months ago.

        If you’d like to accuse NPR of being slow, go for it.

            Because this is not old news, if I’m posting an article that came out TWO DAYS AGO.

            Anyway, you have a nice day.

              Yes it is. Google “traffic cones stop autonomous cars” and look at the 30 “articles” that pop up including npr recycling the same story multiple times.
