That language is too active. It’s more like “robot taxi passenger needs medical attention”. “During the ride with a robot taxi a passenger became unwell. It’s unclear at this point what caused the passenger to become dizzy and get a head wound. Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk told this reporter that there was no problem at all and that the passenger arrived faster at their destination than initially calculated.”

On the plus side these cars aren’t going to last long driving like this. They’re heavy too so speed plumps affect them even more harshly.

The sad thing is these things will probably not be taken of the road before a few dozen people have been run over.

They won’t be taken off the road. After the first passengers are hit, they will blame “jaywalkers” and suggest some kind of tracking tech we have to wear.

Oh, the US government is already proposing that.
