Should cities designate special lanes for autonomous vehicles?

Special lanes for autonomous vehicles separate them from regular traffic, potentially improving safety and traffic flow. Proponents argue that dedicated lanes increase safety, enhance traffic efficiency, and encourage the adoption of autonomous technology. Opponents argue that it reduces road space for traditional vehicles and may not be justified given the current number of autonomous vehicles.

Supreme Court denies Uber, Lyft appeal of California labor lawsuits

Uber and Lyft argued that lawsuits filed in 2020 by California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Labor Commissioner Lilia Garcia-Brower seeking back payments for withheld minimum wage, overtime and other benefits are invalid because the workers in question signed arbitration agreements with the companies.The California Supreme Court in January also refused to hear an appeal of a lower court decision that found state officials aren’t bound by arbitration agreements they didn’t sign.California Appeals Court Justice Jon Streeter ruled last September that California officials were enforcing state labor laws and not suing on behalf of workers. That means the arbitration agreements drivers signed are irrelevant to the state’s authority.“The public officials who brought these actions do not derive their authority from individual drivers but from their independent statutory authority to bring civil enforcement actions,” Streeter wrote in his opinion.The lawsuits were filed prior to voters approving Proposition 22 in November 2020, which gives the ride-hailing companies the ability to keep classifying drivers as independent contractors.

Harris’ Popularity Surges In Rust Belt

Vice President Kamala Harris has closed the gap on former President Trump in the states that have long been key to the party's 2024 strategy, but had been growing out of reach for President Biden.Before he suspended his campaign, Biden was trailing Trump by 2.4 percentage points in Michigan, 2.3 percentage points in Wisconsin and 4.4 percentage points in Pennsylvania, per FiveThirtyEight's average of state polls.A New York Times/Siena College poll out last week found that Harris leads Trump by four percentage points in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan among likely voters in the states.In 2016, polling underestimated Trump by nine percentage points in polls in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. In 2020, he was underestimated by five points in these states compared to the final vote totals.Polling offers just a snapshot in time and there are still questions over whether the Harris campaign can sustain its momentum for the next several weeks until Election Day.But polling shows that her favorability is rising. In Pennsylvania, the Times/Siena poll found that her favorability has grown 10 percentage points over the last month.

Harris says woman’s death part of ‘consequences’ of Trump abortion actions

Vice President Kamala Harris responded Tuesday to a new report about a Georgia woman who died after she did not receive emergency abortion-related care soon enough, calling it part of the “consequences of Donald Trump’s actions.”“This young mother should be alive, raising her son, and pursuing her dream of attending nursing school,” Harris said in a statement. “This is exactly what we feared when Roe [v. Wade] was struck down. In more than 20 states, Trump Abortion Bans are preventing doctors from providing basic medical care.”The Monday report from ProPublica detailed how 28-year-old Amber Nicole Thurman died after doctors, concerned about violating Georgia’s abortion laws, took 20 hours to operate on an infection she had from complications from abortion pills. A state panel on maternal health deemed her death “preventable,” ProPublica found, saying it “marks the first time an abortion-related death, officially deemed ‘preventable,’ is coming to public light.”
