A: Hey there! Any news in our hood?
B: Not much, just... uh, you know Kit Kat the cat from the corner store?
A: Oh, the one everyone loves! What happened to him?
B: Sadly, he got hit by a robotaxi. Can you believe it?
A: No way! That's so terrible. I saw people putting up signs and stuff for him, right?
B: Yeah! Some are criticizing the company, while others remind us about accidents caused by human drivers.
A: Wow, that's intense. You know our local representative Jackie Fielder, right?
B: Uh-huh. She's talking about this case to push for a city resolution. The idea is that people should decide if driverless cars can operate in our neighborhoods.
A: That makes sense. I guess it's harder to hold driverless cars accountable, huh?
B: Exactly! A human driver can apologize and be tracked down, but there's no one to hold accountable with these cars.
A: Yeah, that's scary. The robotaxi company said it was an accident where the cat ran out in front of their vehicle.
B: I saw. They expressed their condolences, but that doesn't really help us move forward, you know?
A: Right. It's definitely something to think about. Let's hope for better changes in our neighborhood soon! 😊
