this is a half truth.

everybody was lying on their takeover reports. EXCEPT Uber.

Uber was banned from California because they refused to lie, and refused to be made to look stupid compared to the companies who WERE lying, and who have literally decapitated multiple people while their vehicle was in control.

my time with Uber was rocky, and I had many qualms. I left partially because I didn't want to be part of the culture that produced Herzberg's death. but this specific thing is not one they should be criticized for.

the cultural issues were real. that's fair to say.

I think you may have been given an official line. Uber loved claiming Lyft was using its dirty tricks in the early days too, even though Lyft was entirely incapable of that kind of thing

Do you have more on this?

I only know that Uber killed a pedestrian.

Now Tesla has decapitated people. Particularly after Elon demanded that they stop using the radar to detect potential collisions. (He said it was too conservative, so they should only apply the brakes when both the camera and the radar detected an object.) The Model S drove under a tractor trailer, sheering off the everything from the bottom of the windshield up, and then continued to drive for quite a distance, until it drove into a ditch.
