#7: A Case of (Self-driving) Road Rage

In this episode, Andrew (@liuandrewk) and Hong (@c0fpv) debate the safety of self-driving cars after a Waymo car hits a pedestrian in SF. Later, they dive into Tesla's decision to rely solely on camera vision for its autopilot system and discuss whether that's a wise choice.
