@Waymo robotaxis coming to my neck of the woods next month? Nice. No driver, nobody to stop me from peeing on the wheels. Welcome to LA, ya dirtbags.

We here at D.A.V.E. are disappointed, but not surprised, by @GavinNewsom's decision to veto AB 316. We can't vote (yet), but Californians can, and 3/4 of them support human operators in #selfdriving trucks.
This fight isn't over, and our bite is worse than our bark. Stay tuned.
Amazing rally today in the state capital to urge Governor Gavin Newsom to sign AB316!
There is one choice, with two options - are you with working families and labor? Or are you with the tech billionaires attempting to gut the middle class to make themselves more profitable?
Weβre not against innovation; we want common sense practices applied. Require a human operator in a vehicle of 10,000 pounds or more. Pretty simple!
A major thank you to all our Teamsters Local 350 brothers and sisters who supported this important event!
Sign the bill!

"I heard about @Cruise expanding trials to DC. The last thing we need here is vehicles careening around town recklessly without regard for pedestrians or other cars. Maryland drivers already come here every day."

Imagine sucking up to the guy who moved his company's HQ to another whole ass state so he could embarrass you. We don't grovel that shamelessly, and WE ARE DOGS.
On homelessness, @ElonMusk has touched on a key issue.
California has made record investments β $15.3 bil.
But federal courts block local efforts to clear street encampments β even when housing and services are offered.
Courts must also be held accountable. Enough is enough.
