Seems reasonable that if the they committed suicide and therefore intentionally subjected the driver to the stress of being an unwilling participant in their death.
No, the intent was to commit suicide. The driver was just an innocent bystander, but your wording here makes it sound like they were a target.
Actually, several studies have shown that having as few as 30% of the vehicles on the road being autonomous will have a "moderating" influence on traffic patterns. (think perfectly spaced and paced rolling roadblocks)
So who gets the ticket for riding in the left lane without passing? The occupants? The car's owner? The manufacturer?
Even with the majority of cars being human driven cards, automated cars have a negligible rate of accidents.
Not when you consider total numbers; 5,000 human driven failures out of 10,000,000 vehicles on the road is a drop in the bucket compared to 500 self-driven failures out of 10,000 vehicles on the road.
(yes, those are made-up figures, but they still make the point - you can't reasonably compare self-driven accidents with human-driven accidents without considering the total number of each type of vehicle on the roads)
All lovely quotes, but still no closer to a solution.
Basically, anything you say can and will be used against you but not for you.
You say that like it's a given rule,
It is, in fact the cops literally tell you this when you get arrested, as it's part of Miranda:
"Anything you say can and will be used against you."
And cut it out with the incessant questioning. It's fucking lame and annoying when you bitch about other people not offering solutions when you're not offering shit yourself.
Running guns to Mexican cartels isn't providing material support to enemies of the state?
How about when he told Dmitri Medvedev that he would "have more flexibility after the [2012] election?" Or did Russia only become an enemy after Obama left office?
Would trying to silence/kidnap/murder whistleblowers like Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden count as treason? I think so, but of course that's my opinion.
His administration also kept a "disposition matrix," which most people would refer to as a "kill list," naming a number of people the President wanted to have assassinated, violating their right to Due Process. Seems pretty traitorous to take away Constitutional Rights like that.
Granted, Obama's no Prescott Bush, but a duck is a duck, even if it's not a mallard.
The problem is that to take away this power, you'll need to invest power into the government. This power will then be abused, as it has been every other time someone has blindly followed this suggestion. Why else do so many experiments promising "Socialism" end up as dictatorships?
Isn't the company you work for, or run, a dictatorship? It sure ain't a democracy.
Most companies that aren't sole proprietorship are operated by a board of officials, who vote on the future actions of the company. So actually, most corporations are technically democracies, albeit limited ones.
The whole reason we have a democratic government
If you're talking about the USA, we don't actually have that; what we have is a constitutional republic, in which representatives are elected through a (mostly) democratic process. Fortunately, our Founders saw the problems that Greece and Rome endured due to the potential ills of pure democracy, and thus avoided the tyranny of the majority by very specifically not making the US a democracy.
Government is at least answerable to the people, if the people get organized. Corporations and gangs are not.
Of course, this doesn't fit your narrative. Lock her up right? That's what you were told to think.
This assumption about my motives completely denigrates your position, and nothing you've said defies my statement.
Partisan crybabies are partisan crybabies, regardless of which party they choose to be slaves to. James Comey absolutely told Congress that yes, Clinton did commit multiple felonies, but he was choosing to not pursue charges (even though that wasn't his call to make) because, according to his testimony, she didn't intend to commit said felonies. If you're unwilling to accept this absolute, verifiable fact, then you are the one living in a fantasy world, not me.

Now how to get away from Google Drive? ;-( That's a problem
Onedrive
Dropbox
Or, if you prefer to roll-your-own, there's always OwnCloud.
Hypothetical:
You run a tech startup with 10 employees, including yourself.
Your employees are all paid $15/hr.
You pay yourself $250/hr.
The average pay at your startup is $38.50/hr, despite the fact that not a single employee makes anything close to that figure.
Tl:Dr - excessive pay to upper management really fucks up the charts.
I worked in a unionized environment for 10 years; I make 6x as much as I did then.
I worked in one for 5, and have never made as much money as I did back then.
Anecdotes are not substitutes for evidence.

at's annoying me about all these responses is that they are all actually insults, and not very good ones. No one is actually answering the question.
That tends to happen when the question is stupid and non-productive.
Is it EVER allowed in a production environment, I know for sure it would not be allowed even close to a server where I work.
I doubt the waitresses at Hooter's really care.
Thank you for

Arguing over the terminology of particular foods does seem very much like a #FirstWorldProblem
Going the other way with it, we could start calling mammalian lactation products "tit-milk"
WA, OR, and CA... [are] half of the US GDP.
That's a negatory, Ghostrider.

Wtf? You don't get to just pull numbers out of your ass to make a point.
"After adjusting for severity and accounting for crashes not reported to police,
"You don't get to pull numbers out of your ass, so here's some that I cherry-picked."
GTFO with that bullshit.
If you cut out the driver, your average Uber trip drops to $5-6 each way
CORPORATE GREED DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!
GOODNIGHT!

Companies in competitive markets cannot just arbitrarily raise prices.
Right; they usually collude to raise them all simultaneously, a la cell phone carriers.

Yea, apparently some of them want to be Movie stars.

Seems I mixed up "The House of Representatives" with Congress
The House of Representatives is also part of the US Congress, along with the Senate. Two houses, ergo the term "bicameral legislature."
does not change the fact that the parent was wrong.
About what, specifically?
What amazon really is doing is transferring its risk.
FTFY. "Mitigating" implies that the risk diminishes, which isn't happening here - it's just being moved to effect someone else's pocketbook.

In theory. Practice seems to be a bit off.
That still doesn't make it biased, just broken.
