    What law would I potentially break if I tipped one over?

    I’ve never seen one IRL where I live, they wouldn’t make much sense in suburbia, but I suppose I might come across one someday, if they keep multiplying.

      Fall over in front of it and sue the Conisbrough for damages. If it’s got wheels it’s a fucking car and it should be on the road.

        So little kids on bikes should be on the road? Skateboards should be on the roads? Wheelchairs should be on the road?

          Could you go and be outraged for delivery robots somewhere else?

          Last I checked none of your idiotic examples were commercial delivery vehicles.

          Ideally yes for all of these with maybe the exception of wheelchairs, cars should be small enough and roads large enough to accommodate small man powered vehicles.

          Tape over all its cameras and sensors.

          Disconnect its battery.

          Remove at least one tire.

          I think the company could still likely chase people who do that for damages if something broke or for lost profit since it would be pretty clear that it was intentionally disabled/intended to stop its function so it would be pretty clear in a civil court that there was tortious intent.

          I wouldn’t personally recommend doing it on these, they are essentially walking cameras.

          Or put a traffic cone in front and behind it? Definitely don’t do that though, it’s possibly illegal.

      I’m kinda surprised that these things aren’t being stripped for parts by meth-heads TBH
