Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

I'd say the vehicle not continuing to drive with a traffic cone on its hood is the exact way it should operate.
But putting a cone on its hood should be a crime. Vandalism or obstruction of some flavor.
@rgb3x3 @raccoona_nongrata "Vandalism, n, action involving deliberate destruction of or damage to public or private property."
Obstruction as a crime means "an act that involves unduly influencing, impeding, or otherwise interfering with the justice system".
What a wild take. "Ah yes, we should be protecting capital at all costs."
A traffic cone is not damaging the property, or hurting anyone. It just damages their bottom line a little bit.
It's not even like the car is personal property, someone's only mode of transportation. And if it were, it wouldn't matter, because a human can just remove a cone.
I find it hilarious and unhinged that people will genuinely suggest that something as minor as placing a traffic cone on the hood of a robotaxi should be criminalized.
