I don’t think the current conditions led to this decision, though I’m sure that’s the transport ghouls long term intent. Even with this rule change, the tech isn’t anywhere near ready for primetime. It’s not a question of safety either, it’s a question of it actually working. There’s a big difference between actually existing autonomous taxis driving in Arizona and pulling several tons of cargo through the mountains on dubiously marked roads in highly variable weather conditions.

True, probably has more to do with aggressive lobbying from the likes of Lyft and Uber since they have no sustainable business model that isn’t just “get driverless cars so we can stop paying drivers”
