Reply to comment by pitchforksNbonfires in New Pennsylvania laws taking effect in 2023. Here’s a look at some of the laws that will go into effect in the new year. by oldschoolskater
>My points about DUI and distracted driving are relevant as they would directly affect the operation of technology-assisted vehicles, from both a safety and law-enforcement standpoint.
What are you even talking about? What about being drunk is relevant to the operation of a "self driving vehicle" that wouldn't be with a regular vehicle?
>Both things can’t be true.
multiple things can absolutely be true at the same time and I see no point in continuing this conversation as it seems you struggle with that concept, especially if you'd so quickly reject NHTSA research as not being sufficient so quickly without offering up some credible counterpoints. That MSN article you linked is a single data point, not a definitive source.
>A personal anecdote has no validity unless you can provide some specifics or documentation.
Fucking peak irony right here, I'm not about to post up one of my former classmate's personal information for you to tear apart their story because you'd rather steer conversations toward your own shitty misguided view of the world than broaden your perspective. I offered that to give some context to how long this "debate" has been going on.

Stay classy - you elevate the dialogue that way. Profanity is always a nice touch.
People like you always get tweaked when you can’t make an argument without insulting the other party. Every time.
What “NHTSA research?”
Where is it? Link? Point it out, for God’s sake. Is that asking too much? Support your argument.

Being impaired is just as relevant in a self-driving vehicle as in a regular vehicle. That was my point.
You wrote, Why should anyone care if they do or don't get a DUI? Is this about punishing alcoholics or saving lives?
You were the one diminishing the element of impairment - by the above statement.
The msn article is one event. As I’ve repeatedly stated, there are numerous NHTSA safety investigations into accidents involving technology-assisted vehicles - and I provided a link - which you completely ignore because it doesn’t fit your agenda.
Regardless of the fairy tale world you may live in, the safety of these vehicles has not yet been established - based on the numerous accident investigations.
As far as your make-believe anecdote, a story can be relayed without divulging any personal information. You chose not to do that.
You have an elevated view of your debating skills, as evidenced by your dropping the “my legal ethics course” and your “masters,” in your original post. That’s supposed to either impress or intimidate. People who do things like that don’t have the confidence of genuine one-on-one debating, so the “credentials” are supposed to give them an advantage.
It didn’t work.

You're right and I'm sorry, I should have realized there was a child present.

Calling you out on being wrong isn't an insult when you're wrong.

🖕I linked you to their site directly, I'm not your mom/teacher/librarian/whoever it was that failed to teach you how to research something on your own. But because I'm in the Christmas spirit, here's a Wikipedia article to get you started.

>Being impaired is just as relevant in a self-driving vehicle as in a regular vehicle. That was my point.
Not when we're talking about technology that would provent drunks from plowing into pedestrians. Police are either responding to accidents or hopefully cathing the person before they kill someone. Self driving tech is always there.
>The msn article is one event. As I’ve repeatedly stated, there are numerous NHTSA safety investigations into accidents involving technology-assisted vehicles - and I provided a link - which you completely ignore because it doesn’t fit your agenda.
I don't have an agenda, but it's starting to make sense why you thought a souce offering up the opinions of politicians on NHTSA research was the same as a source that's directly from NHTSA.
>As far as your make-believe anecdote, a story can be relayed without divulging any personal information. You chose not to do that.
I'm sure more details from my personal anecdote were all it's going to take to convince someone that's arguing against NHTSA based on the opinions of politicians.
>That’s supposed to either impress or intimidate.
The intention was to provide context for the anecdote but it's absolutely hilarious that you think that can be used to intimidate. Don't let those stupid science bitches make you more smarter.
>It didn’t work.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ can't save everyone from themselves.

>The impact of self-driving cars is anticipated to be wide-ranging on many areas of daily life. Self-driving cars have been the subject of significant research on their environmental, practical, and lifesyle consequences. One significant predicted impact of self-driving cars is a substantial reduction in traffic collisions and resulting severe injuries or deaths. United States government estimates suggest 94% of traffic collisions are caused by human error, with a 2020 study estimating that making 90% of cars on US roads self-driving would save 25,000 lives per year.
