Take that particular Waymo car off the road. Seems absurd, but they still hit someone.

The car is not the problem. The problem is the intersection of human and machine operating independently of each other with conflicting intention.

I am personally a fan of entirely automated but slow traffic. 10mph limit with zero traffic is fast enough for any metro area.
