They definitely aren’t ready and should move away from operating in SF altogether. They should operate out larger cities with wider roads or limit where they operate in SF like bus lines.
I think this compromise needs to happen because SF didn’t plan for robotaxis when the roads were built decades ago. Towns like Phoenix and Las Vegas have the roads to support it. So they should consider splitting operations that way to continue working.
This does nothing but make other towns think the taxis aren’t ready and will fight to keep them out of their towns.
It’s an optics issue at this point if they want to convince people the robots can drive better than humans
