Self-driving car technology has the potential to save lives, create more productive commute time, revolutionize how we travel, and pave the way for safer, more pedestrian-friendly cities.

[Dr. Jon Slotkin @slotkinjr]

I have a guest essay in @nytimes today about autonomous vehicle safety. I wrote it because I’m tired of seeing children die. Done right, we can eliminate car crashes as a leading cause of death in the United States

@Waymo recently released data covering nearly 100 million driverless miles. I spent weeks analyzing it because the results seemed too good to be true. 91% fewer serious-injury crashes. 92% less pedestrians hit. 96% fewer injury crashes at intersections. The list goes on.

39,000 Americans died in crashes last year. More than homicide, plane crashes, and natural disasters combined. The #2 killer of children and young adults. The #1 cause of spinal cord injury. We’ve accepted this as the price of mobility.

We don’t have to.

In medicine, when a treatment shows this level of benefit, we stop the trial early. Continuing to give patients the placebo becomes unethical. When an intervention works this clearly, you change what you do.

In driving, we’re all the control group.

Cities like DC and Boston are blocking deployment. And cities are not the only forces mobilizing to slow this progress.

It’s time we stop treating this like a tech moonshot and start treating it like a public health intervention that will save lives.

👀 this video of Waymo cars evading crashes with people and vehicles. I especially note the ones that require it having a 360° view.

My sincere thanks to Alex Ellerbeck and @acsifferlin for their wisdom and sure hand in editing this piece.

Se hizo historia otra vez, dos veces el mismo día, primero aseguras un cohete de 270,000 kilos como si usaras palillos de comida japonesa y después logras la re-entrada a la tierra con video en vivo (históricamente no se podía porque el plasma que se forma por el calor)

Today is a good day for human space flight! Re-igniting the dream of space benefits you and your grandma, from how you use your phone to the way we predict the weather and how we grow our food. Space is hard! Congrats to the @SpaceX team!
