I'd definitely feel better in a self-driving car where I wouldn't feel any awkwardness about changing the music or just watching a loud video on my phone.
As I understand it, a lot of women in the areas where Waymo's currently deployed feel safer without having a driver as well.
This reminds me of the hysteria over the idea that people will randomly start fucking with road signs to put self-driving cars and their occupants in danger, and that this would be widespread and something that will impede SDC adoption.
I guess they’re thinking to disrupt the car’s movement and predictability in stopping, in comparison to an erratic driver, who they also wont have to deal with when breaking into the car

Until criminals figure out they're sitting ducks.

how would they be a sitting duck in a driverless car?

I think a deterrent to that are all the cameras on the car
