I agree 100% mat60,,,,self driving vehicles should not be close to being part of our crazy highway system.
Reading the article it was actually being driven by a person. Apparently the driver thought he would stop crossing the road. He was also in a crosswalk. The athlete was hurt bad enough that he can't make his match today. Why didn't u he driver stop?
