Waymo co-CEO says society will accept robocars killing people -- I say
the airline industry proves her wrong. Look at what happens when a
major airline has a crash. A relative handful of people die, compared
with the millions who continue to fly safely. But an entire aircraft
type will often be grounded worldwide, sometimes for years as
modifications are made and lawsuits play out. The first time a robocar
kills a child, you can bet the industry will be set back for years. -L
