      I think you can stop robotaxis by just putting a traffic cone on its hood.

        Yeah but that’s easy to take off. The least you could do is epoxy it to the hood of the clanker.

          Wouldn’t spray painting the sensors be easier and more effective?

            Not necessarily. You’d be surprised how many sensors and cameras have coatings on them which prevents spray paints from sticking (before it dries it just slides off)

        Oh in that case we should just boot it and call it a day.
