By placing traffic cones on self-driving cars' hoods, activists are turning them into useless hunks of metal and plastic.
The activists, who are calling their actions leading up to the vote "The Week of Cone," don't want this to happen because they think this expansion will increase the number of cars in the city, the vehicles are unsafe to pedestrians, and they block traffic such as buses and emergency vehicles.
"As a pedestrian, I am concerned," a member of the activist group told ABC 7. "I see them stop and open their doors in the bike lane. I feel rushed when crossing the street in front of them. If I take the bus, I wonder if it will stall and all 40 of us will be stuck behind it." A group of San Franciscans realized that they can disable Waymo and Cruise robotaxis by placing a traffic cone on the vehicle's hood.
