They definitely care about safety. I don’t doubt their dedication to preventing accidents. My objections come from their hand waving away disengagements from the official results, shared with both regulators and Alphabet leadership. This was done to make their lead look greater than it was and to hide the slow progress with simple, required driving maneuvers like yield signs and unprotected left turns. My position had me handling driver issues directly and what the reports said did not line up with their, or my own, extensive time in the actual car.
