You got it wrong't the truck backed into the bus.


Semp

From the photo I seen the front of the bus was in the right front fender of the truck.....nevertheless not good, crashing on the first day will be on record.

If the truck was backing in that ally why did the bus not honk or back up?  Alerting the truck driver is standard practice to avoid a accident.  Foresight and action of a human is one of our great qualities.  Ask ghi, we are in tune with the all seeing eye... :x :bolt:

The problem with autonomous car or are are when the system's fail's, because they will one day.
On a icy road with low visibility, snowing, heavy winds, Im not sure the system with handle that like a human can, or decide to drive on another day.
Another.important thing, cargo transported can be stopped and emptied due to unawareness of systems to respond to such events, unless they have Robocop driving it.

Also - recently a hacker managed to take over a flying 767 without the pilots even knowing it, via the on board WiFi system.

Unlikely, he's probably referring to the Chris Roberts report which sounds like a bunch of cow doo doo tbh. First it was a wifi hack, then he claimed he connected into the entertainment system under the seat using an ethernet connection with a modified connector (and nobody noticed this guy remove panels to access wiring under his seat). Plus experts/boeing say the systems are isolated.

There is enough lies in that video to consider a boring comedy.
