I agree about bad drivers. Driving skills are not taught in Driver's Ed.
The question then becomes: How much driving experience do the engineers/developers have in all the possible situations? And do they know enough to be able accommodate such things as controlling a skid on black ice? How about hydro-planing on worn tires? If they don't have the driving experience, how can they develop software to handle it?
Just thinking.....

NO!
But, I think they should start working on self-walking pedestrians, and self-driving bicycles and self-driving motor-scooters and motorcycles. Those are more of a danger to themselves and automotive traffic and each other than anything else.
Additionally, All cars, trucks, bicycles, etc. should be fitted with a Wi-Fi signal jammer that operates whenever the vehicle is in motion.

I will. If I am allowed to see the source code and reprogram it myself.
A bunch of drunkards jumped on the street right in front of you, what would you do?
-> brake very hard
-> swerve and go into accident myself
-> brake normally and hit the drunkards

Massacre at 10:01. Assemble in moat. (10)
Hint
[Base]:[Numeral]
Solution (added after solved)
DECIMATION = Massacre
DEC = 10 (as in decimal numeric base)
I = 01 (1 in roman numerals)
MATION = (assemble) anag. of "in moat"

(or this one gets solved of course)

I am stuck with two things, either palindrome or anagram of one past ten. Both do not make any sense

The use of 10:01 (the time of day) is a tad confusing ...
|
|
|
|
|
Is it a time of day though, or is it just two numbers?

DECIMATION?

CORRECT! Just in time to take it off my hands

Still no idea why - I got the word right at the beginning, but couldn't justify it - MOAT is there, but the rest doesn't fit anything I can see, except "Massacre" and (with the hint) "10:01".

I added solution to the post. I honestly thought this was going to be too easy...

The Lounge[^]
Having Seen various approach, I first decided to pull Mrs into team Parent and talked about my concern.
It seems Mrs and daughter had already this discussion few months ago when we gifted her phone and this is the status
1. My kids pvt account has my Mrs as a member and follower (on one condition. See 2). So Mrs can see whatever is being posted. Its other story that Mrs rarely looks as she says its too many chatter to even care . But this works I guess because Kid knows she can be checked anytime
2. Mrs should never respond, join in or give opinion on the posting etc. She has to be a just a mute spectator and any issues need to be discussed offline.
Ps. I asked if she knew what they generally talk about and it seems its billie eilish,
billie eilish ,
billie eilish ,

Why *insert name* is behaving so childish,

Sounds very reasonable I find. And on par with my suggestion yesterday. Which is obviously a reason to why I find it reasonable.
