\nRobotaxi haters in San Francisco are disabling the AVs with traffic cones<\/br>
\n2023-07-09 22:17:31<\/br><\/p>\n

\n

A decentralized group of safe streets activists in San Francisco realized they can disable Cruise and Waymo robotaxis by placing a traffic cone on a vehicle\u2019s hood, and they\u2019re encouraging others to do it, too.<\/p>\n

The \u201cWeek of Cone,\u201d as the group is calling the now-viral prank on Twitter and TikTok, is a form of protest against the spread of robotaxi services in the city, and it appears to be gaining traction with residents who are sick of the vehicles malfunctioning and blocking traffic<\/a>. The protest comes in the lead-up to a hearing<\/a> that will likely see Waymo and Cruise expand their robotaxi services in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is set to approve the expansion of both Cruise\u2019s and Waymo\u2019s autonomous vehicle passenger service deployments in San Francisco on July 13. The agency doesn\u2019t give companies permission to operate their AVs on public roads \u2014 that\u2019s the Department of Motor Vehicles\u2019 domain. But it does grant companies the authority to charge passengers a fare for that service, which is an essential ingredient to scaling robotaxi and autonomous delivery operations sustainably.<\/p>\n

In May, the CPUC posted draft resolutions approving the expansion<\/a>, despite mounting opposition from city agencies and residents. Opponents called out the string of AVs that have impeded traffic, public transit and emergency responders, and asked that the CPUC move cautiously, set up workshops, collect more data, prohibit robotaxi deployment downtown and during peak hours, and limit the expansion of fleet sizes.<\/p>\n

Other opponents like the San Francisco Taxi Workers Alliance and the Alliance for Independent Workers have protested the spread of robotaxis, which they say will eliminate the need for taxi<\/a> and ride-hail drivers.<\/p>\n

Safe Street Rebel\u2019s cone campaign is a bid to raise awareness and invite more pissed-off San Franciscans to submit public comments to the CPUC before next week\u2019s hearing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese companies promise their cars will reduce traffic and collisions, but instead they block buses, emergency vehicles and everyday traffic,\u201d reads one video posted on social media<\/a>. \u201cThey even un-alived a person and a dog. And they\u2019re partnering with the police to record everyone all the time without anyone\u2019s consent. And most importantly they require streets that are designed for cars, not people or transit. They exist only for profit-driven car companies to stay dominant and make it harder for transit to stay afloat.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the above statement is a bit hyperbolic, there are nuggets of truth. Cruise and Waymo vehicles have indeed stopped in the middle of roads, blocking emergency vehicles, public transit and general traffic. Recently a Waymo AV did hit and kill a dog<\/a>, but it seems that the accident was unavoidable. In 2018, an Uber self-driving vehicle<\/a> was involved in an accident that killed a pedestrian in Arizona, but so far no deaths have occurred as the result of AVs in San Francisco. And, yes, the police have tapped Cruise and Waymo<\/a> for footage to help solve a handful of crimes, but there\u2019s no evidence that the companies are working in tandem with law enforcement to record everyone all the time.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, the group brings up a common concern about unleashing autonomous vehicles onto public roads \u2014 the lack of input from everyday people who have to deal with the vehicles on the ground. Congressional efforts to regulate self-driving cars have lagged for several years, so most regulation comes from state departments of transportation and departments of motor vehicles.<\/p>\n

\u201cI see some tech bros wringing their hands in horror: \u2018Won\u2019t someone think of the AVs?!’\u201d tweeted<\/a> David Zipper, a visiting fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School\u2019s Taubman Center for State and Local Government, in response to the cone challenge. \u201cCouldn\u2019t disagree more. California regulators are forcing San Franciscans to become guinea pigs for work-in-progress AV tech. Active protest is a reasonable response.\u201d<\/p>\n

Or to put it another way:<\/p>\n

\u201cHell no. We do not consent to this,\u201d said Safe Street Rebel.<\/p>\n

The group is inviting others to follow its lead and disable the vehicles by \u201cgently placing\u201d cones on a driverless \u2014 meaning, empty \u2014 car\u2019s hood. Some people are apparently sending in submissions<\/a>, but it\u2019s unclear how many people have sent images to Safe Street Rebel. The group did not respond to TechCrunch\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n

Waymo called the viral hack a form of vandalism.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot only is this understanding of how AVs operate incorrect, but this is vandalism and encourages unsafe and disrespectful behavior on our roadways,\u201d the company said in a statement. \u201cWe will notify law enforcement of any unwanted or unsafe interference of our vehicles on public roadways.\u201d<\/p>\n

Again with the hyperbole. The definition of vandalism is to intentionally damage someone\u2019s property \u2014 think slashed tires or broken windows. Waymo probably won\u2019t have any luck sticking a vandalism charge on someone who puts a cone on the hood of its vehicles.<\/p>\n

Cruise told TechCrunch that it has a strong safety record and that, when compared to a human driver<\/a>, its autonomous driver had 73% fewer collisions with meaningful risk of injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cCruise\u2019s fleet\u00a0provides free rides to late-night service workers\u00a0without more reliable transportation options, has delivered over\u00a02 million meals to food insecure San Franciscans, and\u00a0recovers food waste from local businesses,\u201d said Cruise in a statement. \u201cIntentionally obstructing vehicles gets in the way of those efforts and risks creating traffic congestion for local residents.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the guerilla protests, the cone trick probably won\u2019t have an effect on the CPUC\u2019s decision. There\u2019s enough support from other stakeholders \u2014 including elected officials, accessibility advocates, technology industry groups and business and economic development organizations \u2014 for the CPUC to brush dissent under the rug. And according to the upcoming hearing\u2019s agenda<\/a>, it looks like the agency is ready to approve the program authorization.<\/p>\n

\u201cCruise\u2019s proposed service is not anticipated to result in significant safety risks,\u201d reads an agenda item. The same sentiment is repeated for Waymo.<\/p>\n

This article has been updated with a statement from Cruise.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
