Emergency responders shouldn't be forced to play nanny for self-driving cars. Any of them that misbehaves should be impounded and the company responsible for these cars heavily fined (not returning the car until fine is paid). Any vehicle with multiple violations should be confiscated and scrapped as they've proven to be unsafe.

Waymo Says It Has Nothing to Say After Its Self-Driving Taxi Blocked an Ambulance Responding to a Mass Shooting
A Waymo robotaxi blocked an ambulance from responding to the scene of a mass shooting in Austin, Texas, on Sunday, EMS and Waymo officials confirmed.
“A driverless vehicle was stopped in the area while our crews were responding to this morning’s shooting, and it did briefly interfere with access for one ambulance,” Austin-Travis County EMS spokesperson Christa Stedman told Axios. “The officer in the video followed established protocol to address the situation and was able to quickly move the vehicle so ATCEMS units could proceed.”
The Google-owned Waymo told outlets that it would not be providing a statement.

KXAN: NTSB: Human error prompted Waymo to pass stopped school bus in Austin
Waymo-Software ignoriert Haltesignale von Schulbussen.
Untersuchungen der NTSB zeigen, dass die KI haltende Busse in Austin fälschlicherweise als parkende Fahrzeuge klassifiziert. Die Sensorik erfasst das Objekt korrekt, die semantische Interpretation scheitert jedoch am Szenario mit Warnblinker und Stoppschild. Waymo muss den Algorithmus anpassen. #Waymo #Robotaxi #AutonomesFahren
