"content": "\u003cp>San Franciscans have gotten fairly used to seeing driverless vehicles cruising in the lane next to them, but a viral video of a woman trapped in a Waymo by two men demanding her phone number is raising new concerns about passenger safety in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/autonomous-vehicles\">autonomous vehicles\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The woman, who identified herself as Amina V., posted the video of her frightening experience in the front passenger seat of a Waymo stalled on Mission Street after a man approached it at a red light.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Warning to women in SF,” she wrote Monday in a \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/Amina_io/status/1840759345354809414\">post on social media platform X\u003c/a> accompanying the minute-long video, which shows two men standing in front of the car and gesturing to her, requesting her phone number. Amina asks them to move repeatedly, saying, “Get out of the way” and “Please stop. You’re holding traffic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said via email that the whole exchange lasted a few minutes, during which a message appeared on the vehicle’s internal display that said something along the lines of “We will help you shortly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amina said Waymo’s team reached out to her numerous times during and following the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Amina_io/status/1840759345354809414\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Waymo said in an email that “the trust and safety of our riders and community is our top priority, and we promptly connected with the rider to ensure their well-being.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In an instance like this, our riders have 24/7 access to Rider Support agents who will help them navigate the situation in real-time and coordinate closely with law enforcement officers to provide further assistance as needed,” Waymo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company added that these situations are “exceedingly rare,” noting that it records about 100,000 rides a week in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Phoenix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amina’s experience is the second video of a San Francisco Waymo ride gone wrong to circulate in the past few weeks. Another video picked up by TikTok users \u003ca href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@2urbangirls/video/7418298419674008875?q=waymo%20grafitti&t=1727882742484\">shows a man and his dog\u003c/a> in a stalled Waymo as two people tag the vehicle with markers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amina said that before she started filming, one of the two men in her video approached the vehicle and stood in front of it while she was stopped at a red light. He left and returned with a second man, and the two of them demanded her number.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12001637 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/231214-CRUISE-MD-06_qed-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said she was “afraid more men would crowd around, which thankfully didn’t happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the men moved, the car remained stalled, and Amina clicked an “in-car support” button.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They seemed to be aware of the issue. They asked if I was OK, and the car began to drive towards my location. They asked if I needed police support, and I said no,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When she was nearing her destination, the support team called again to ask her if she was OK. She said she was in a rush to get to her hair appointment, which she was now running late to because of the incident, but assured them that she was fine. They reached out again hours later and let her know she would receive at least one free ride.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amina said she is a fan of autonomous vehicles and might ride in one again despite the experience. She said she has anxiety about driving due to a serious car accident as a child and has been looking forward to this kind of technology for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How Waymo and other autonomous vehicle companies deal with “the human factor,” though, could be difficult, she told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“On Waymo’s side of things — they can encourage the cars to avoid driving in the Tenderloin or certain areas of SOMA. Having lived in SF for a while, I know that certain areas have a higher amount of people running in the streets, which would probably increase incidents like this happening,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

It’s what they have relied on for some of their emotional safety, so when that is gone, that’s a very significant point in a person’s life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>Building codes aren’t typically dinner table conversation, but policymakers and environmental advocates are quick to say they matter deeply in the race to cut emissions in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/california\">California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With that goal in mind, state energy policymakers are set to vote Wednesday on an updated set of requirements for new construction designed to make electrifying buildings more attractive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new code before the California Energy Commission, which would regulate how new buildings, additions and alterations are constructed, addresses the appliances that create the majority of a building’s emissions: furnaces and water heaters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plans would require a greater standard of building efficiency. To get there, some components — like certain levels of insulation — would be mandatory; the code would also encourage the use of electric appliances like heat pumps and heat pump water heaters, making it far easier to reach those standards. It does not prohibit the use of gas appliances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Heat pumps can warm or cool a building’s air, serving the same role as a furnace and air conditioner rolled into one. Most furnaces use gas, while a heat pump uses electricity. Heat pumps can also warm and cool water, like a water heater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More efficient buildings could have a major impact. Buildings produce roughly a quarter of California’s emissions, and reducing those emissions requires replacing windows, insulating homes and swapping out gas-burning appliances for efficient, electric ones. Electric appliances are powered by a grid that is continuously getting greener as energy from zero-emission sources continues to increase in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a very positive development that takes a meaningful step forward in getting fossil fuels out of both new and existing buildings,” Matt Vespa, senior attorney at environmental law nonprofit Earthjustice, said of the new code proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12002972 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240903-MARIN-SUBSTANDARD-AG-WORKER-HOUSING-MD-04-KQED-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the CEC has really gone to the fullest extent they can under what authority they have in encouraging all-electric new homes,” Vespa said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such building codes can have strong effects on the market, Vespa said, noting that after the 2022 building codes began to prioritize electrifying homes, California saw “a larger share of new homes being all electric.

To get there, some components — like certain levels of insulation — would be mandatory; the code would also encourage the use of electric appliances like heat pumps and heat pump water heaters, making it far easier to reach those standards. It does not prohibit the use of gas appliances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Heat pumps can warm or cool a building’s air, serving the same role as a furnace and air conditioner rolled into one. Most furnaces use gas, while a heat pump uses electricity. Heat pumps can also warm and cool water, like a water heater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More efficient buildings could have a major impact. Buildings produce roughly a quarter of California’s emissions, and reducing those emissions requires replacing windows, insulating homes and swapping out gas-burning appliances for efficient, electric ones. Electric appliances are powered by a grid that is continuously getting greener as energy from zero-emission sources continues to increase in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a very positive development that takes a meaningful step forward in getting fossil fuels out of both new and existing buildings,” Matt Vespa, senior attorney at environmental law nonprofit Earthjustice, said of the new code proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In San Francisco, the drop was even more dramatic, with rents declining nearly 7%. However, housing experts and advocates say that the report’s findings do not mean housing is becoming affordable for everyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think we’re even close to that in the Bay Area,” said Jonas Bordo, CEO of rental listing company Dwellsy. “Rents are very expensive, and it’s a huge challenge for folks to be able to afford rent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Redfin’s report shows that last year, a recent college graduate in the San Jose metro area, which includes San Jose, Sunnyvale and Santa Clara, would have to spend nearly 31% of their income on rent for a two-bedroom apartment they might share with a roommate. For a studio or one-bedroom apartment, they might spend almost half of their income on rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the rental market has cooled, that same person today might only spend about 28% of their income for a shared two-bedroom apartment and would no longer be considered “rent-burdened” — or spending more than a third of their income on housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Share of income a typical recent college grad would need to spend on a studio or 1-bedroom apartment\" aria-label=\"Grouped Bars\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-ADgCr\" src=\"https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/ADgCr/3/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"622\" data-external=\"1\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The findings are slightly different in the San Francisco metropolitan area, which includes San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley: A recent graduate, who might have paid just over 31% of their income on a two-bedroom apartment last year, would now spend about 27%. For a one-bedroom apartment or studio, that graduate last year would have spent more than half their income on housing. Today, they might spend just over 43%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report uses an estimated median salary of nearly $109,000 in the San Jose metro area and just over $84,000 for the San Francisco metro.
