It's funny because now you're sounding like you're blaming the school/the city for the situation.

Things are what they are. Driving situations are never perfect and that's why we adapt. The Waymo was speeding in a school zone. Did a dangerously fast overtake of a double parked car. It's engineering safety failure over engineering safety failure from Waymo's part, on nobody else.





> The Waymo was speeding in a school zone

Source? The article doesn't list a speed limit, but highways.dot.gov suggests to me that the speed limit would be 25mph in the school zone, in which case the waymo was going significantly under the speed limit.


It is 15mph at this school with kids present. So percentage wise kind of high, but in absolute terms not much.
