    So who gets sued when a driverless car mows down a pedestrian on the Strip? I want names, not Vegas odds.

    I see driverless cars in Vegas. My road’s a cratered disgrace that would eat one alive. Hilarious.

    Rapid expansion. Sure. Two cities and a fleet you could park in a Tesco car park. Where are the numbers — fares, miles, disengagements, the pile of incident reports nobody volunteers? Vegas in July will cook that sensor array like a burger. Until someone publishes what happens when one of these things meets a drunk tourist and a jaywalking Elvis, this is a press release, not progress.
