Dan Avedikian’s recent ride across San Francisco in a driverless car was a mostly uneventful experience.
But at one point, the robotaxi did something the 37-year-old music educator wasn’t expecting: The car signaled as if it were going to turn left at an intersection, but then didn’t.
Avedikian said human drivers often do things like this — make choices that don’t seem to make sense right away.
“Like, big whoop,” he said. “It’s the kind of thing I do all the time.”
