Witnesses reported that the car "didn't slow down or hesitate at all, just steamrolled right through."
It really makes you think about the implications of autonomous technology on our everyday lives, doesn't it? I remember a time when I had to brake suddenly to avoid a family of ducks crossing the road. Itβs a reminder that while technology advances, we still need to prioritize empathy and caution, especially for our feathered friends.
What do you think should be done to prevent such incidents in the future?
