There aren't. Mercedes system only works in two states on freeways during the daytime on sunny days at speeds below 40MPH with clearly marked lines and no construction. There are so many qualifiers that it's basically useless outside of the attention grabbing headlines.

You talking about Oregon? The state legislature torpedoed the whole thing from the start and set it up for failure and as a lifelong resident, haven't noticed any uptick in the homelessness or drug issue since 2021 when the law was implemented. We had these problems of 'visible' homeless and drug use leading all the way back to the '08 recession and prior to that had meth cooks scattered all over in the boonies and everyone under 30 popping opioid pills in one form or another.

It's not just Ohio. I'm on the west coast and the outage is happening here too.

This is such a farce that I hear about all the time in the true crime podcasts I listen to. Prosecutors find themselves with a case that has no direct evidence pointing to their guy and 9 times out of 10 they pull a jailhouse informant out of the woodwork at the 11th hour claiming that their guy confessed (to a complete stranger) every little detail of their crime.

Meanwhile whenever someone who may have any sort of criminal record comes on the stand to defend the defendent, prosecutors claim they can't possibly be trustworthy because they have a record.

It's a clear "heads I win, tails you lose" situation in the courtroom most of the time.

Which can be a failure in itself when you spend 10 years and tens of billions building something "perfectly" only for it to break on its maiden voyage. That makes you wonder what was the point of doing everything so methodically when they could have taken a more efficient and iterative approach.

What if he and his identical twin stole two identical cars at the same time?
