If those high beams are legal, then all that means is the robot can't safely operate under normal/legal conditions. If it can't operate safely, why is it allowed in public?

High beams are NOT legal in the city. And they were in all likelyhood not being used in this scenario.

[–] jacksilver@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah, for some reason I read high beams and just thought of the bright LEDs everyone has. Either way, I agree that it doesn't make sense to blame high beams.

It's not legal to use them in a city. If you're blinding someone with them, it's not legal (at least in my US state)
