This is why driverless cars are a bad idea, they assume that everything will work as intended and everyone will play by the rules.
You need a human to make a snap decision in cases like these.
I hope these men are arrested for sexual solicitation via coercion (could be tried as attempted rape in the right state), disrupting traffic, sexual harassment, public disturbance. Fuck em, or better yet, don't fuck em, they're unfuck worthy.
What were these morons thinking? I'm sex positive as hell, I'm all for bringing back the free love of the 70's and the LSD of the 60's, but not like this, never anything like this... Hypothetically bro say you do get her number this way?
The fuck happens next?
"Hey remember me, I'm the dipshit who pressured you into giving me this number by trapping you in your car via exploitation of its safety features? So I'll pick you up at 7 for a romantic candlelit dinner and afterwards we could go see a movi..." click "Hello? Damn, friendzoned again."
Let’s not go too far overboard. These guys are assholes who deserve some consequences. However the article didn’t include anything that looked like attempted rape, nothing violent, no direct threat of harm (indirect, maybe). Let’s try to be proportional here
Definitely a false imprisonment charge though
I guess I missed the part where you're not free to literally get out of the car and leave?
Edit: the two guys definitely deserve harassment and disturbing the peace charges.
If you're a female, you are going to get out of the car to get in the street and hang out with these 2 males harassing you on the street? She's definitely safer in the car. The 2 males are keeping her prisoner in the car against her will. the car cannot leave, and she cannot get out.
