Summary

San Francisco’s mayor is sounding the alarm on self-driving cars, demanding tighter regulations after chaotic incidents during fireworks and a blackout left robotaxis stranded and blocking traffic—raising fears they could cripple emergency response. He’s calling for real-time emergency adaptability, lane-blocking prevention, and data sharing, insisting these vehicles must meet the same safety standards as traditional city services.
