“And it's actually in China right now is, I think being priced at like $130 a car, this solid state MEMS LiDAR, whereas the Waymo LiDAR is like $5,000 a car.”
Friedberg states autonomous vehicles reduce fatalities by ninety five percent per million miles in California.
“I don't know if you followed this autonomous vehicle stuff in California, But, you know, for every million miles, autonomous vehicles reduce fatalities by, like, ninety five percent.”
Friedberg says autonomous vehicles reduce fatalities by 95% per million miles but single crashes shut down entire programs.
“for every million miles, autonomous vehicles reduce fatalities by, like, ninety five percent. But if there's one autonomous vehicle that crashes once, everyone shuts that entire program down and says, wait a second.”
