Here we go. Autonomous vehicles are now mowing down cyclists.

I hope that Waymo's insurance is good!

I hate the lane assist in our car, I had to shut it off. It kept steering the car back toward obstacles I was trying to avoid, like trucks with wide loads, potholes, and cyclists. I don't know why anyone thinks that shit is a good idea. I'm sure driverless cars will make the same stupid mistakes.

I've never had issues with it because it shuts off when indicating in the direction that you are turning.

Mine disconnects when I steer. Both my cars will just beep at you for actively steering across a line, though you do need to overpower the machine's steering
