” . . .Like they actually ganged up and then stopped,

and GM’s response kind of minimizes the problem here.

That is a legitimate blocking of traffic, which could have caused some real emergencies. . .” . .

“like they actually ganged up and then stopped”

Sounds like a test run.

If the test was for, say, preventing escape by vehicle of humans in a city,

- why then -

It looks like the test run was a success.

I remember reading science fiction stories in which people would get into these self-driving cars (usually flying cars in the stories) and if they were wanted by the authorities, the doors would lock and they would be transported to the nearest police station.

GM should resurrect the name “Nova” for these vehicles. “Nova,” of course, means “no go” in Spanish.
