Just received this email from Uber:
Dear John,
Today, the City requires Uber and other companies to hand over a lot of sensitive personal passenger data, including where you're picked up on every trip. Now the City wants more. They're trying to force companies to tell them where you’re dropped off, as well.
In other words, they want to piece together the full details of every trip you ever take. Click below to send a clear message that enough is enough.
Yours is the most powerful voice in this debate. We need your help. The City doesn’t need this data and they’ve shown in the past that they cannot prevent it from becoming public.
Manufacturers must obtain an ordinance or resolution from local authorities specifying the authorized operational design domain of the vehicles. This requirement ensures communities are aware of and have the opportunity to provide input on the locations and conditions in which driverless vehicles will be tested on their local streets.
Manufacturers must describe how their driverless test vehicles will be monitored and provide training to remote operators. A two-way communication link will enable communication between a remote operator and any passengers in the vehicles. Consistent with the current testing regulations, manufacturers will be required to report any accidents and unplanned disengagements of autonomous control that occur during testing. These reporting requirements provide a mechanism to monitor that a manufacturer is safely testing on public roads and evaluate whether the vehicles comply with traffic laws.
