It's not mobility autonomy if it drives itself.
In the video they say it can go into shops and the such, rather than just the gate. Since people with mobility challenges would be using this, I imagine they'd prefer the self driving option over having to navigate by themselves.
I'm thinking grandparents for example
When my grandfather had a mobility scootie was an absolute nightmare with it. He was absolutely not someone who should have been in control of the vehicle, I fully support it driving itself.
He used to drive everywhere at top speed. Dangerous lunatic.
