Default Another Nail in the High Street Coffin? O/T

I think we will have to wait and see. So where do these robots travel?


On the roads.

On the footways, how do they cross a road?


Same way humans do.

How do they avoid us blindies?


They don’t, they beep and you have to avoid them or die.

That'll be the Uber Eats and Deliveroo drivers out of self-employment.
