Hey I have a question

HEY #self-driving, #AI FOLKS— Here’s a question?

Well… I do have a question….but  let’s  be a little patient shall we?    All sensors  don’t see all things  right?   Do you think  all drivers see all things in the same way?  That’s not my question—On an average day how many people do most  drivers see wearing yellow?  That’s not my question either.  Crewe going to continue to see state after state roll out their own  laws and regulations?  That’s not my question either.   I could  go on and on with my “non-questions for today…and I  would  like (and so would most of America)  answers to  these questions.  However, my question is this?

Do cars usually  operate on streets and  if so where do pedestrians and bicycle riders  usually  operate?   Why  are  we thinking cars have to be responsible  for  the folks who  don’t  usually use the street.  If I played guitar I wouldn’t expect my drummer to  grab my  Fender and  pull off  the opening riff to Free Bird.  

Okay  let’s get right down  to it.  Why can’t pedestrians  wear  a sensor that a car is sure to pick up?  Walkers don’t usually  just wander  around in streets all day.  Why can’t a bicycle or a bicycle  helmet  have a sensor built in?  Privacy?  That’s nonsense that same cyclist is pretty likely got be carrying a  cell phone that can identify  right where they are.  

Where  is it written that  when a new product  comes on the market everyone  is dismissed  from  personal responsibility?  Personally, I am  a little offended that you are disregarding my capacity  to take care of myself in a responsible manner especially if  the car makers  allow me to communicate with their  vehicles in a way that  increases safety.  

Just  give me the  green light so to speak and I will start the ball  rolling on all  types of clothes, jewelry, shoes,  wrist bands,  and hats that  let  your cars know  where I am.  Safety is a two way street (of course unless it only a one way street for car travel).  

I havesensorsin my headphones,TV refrigerator, stove, heaters,airconditioner,onsome of the lightsinmy house….what’s a couple more if they are going to help me be a responsible  participant in a mobile  society?  Oh  and let’s  take this one step further.  Let’s say I  am  a bit lost and  want my  family truckster  to be able to find me…why  can’t I have a beacon for a particular vehicle as well a specific  match?  

Let’s  quit limitingh  our solutions to the vehicles themselves and let’s get out of the  traditional
“vision”  box.  People who ride bikes a lot or walk a lot can handle this… stop being fearful and  start  using tests based  upon curiosity  and solutions that people outside  your lab might have.

Well it’s nice day I think I’ll go for a walk… I might even wear yellow… YOLO
