...and a Zoox showed up? It's Amazon's new driverless taxi. They've just started operating in a couple cities. Who's crazy enough to get in it?

Compared to the taxi rides I took in Okinawa and Thailand with a real driver, the robot would probably be safer. We called those things "Kamikaze Go-Karts"!
