In case you were worried about cars being too safe, don’t worry. The most lethal car brand in the USA is pushing the envelope and innovating entirely new ways to make a nuisance of themselves.
Also, the dash cam footage of Tesla’s self-driving tech is terrifying.
These should have never been allowed on roads.
Think about it: human drivers are put through training and then tested. Then they are licensed and given demerit points so if they screw up enough, they don’t get to drive.
But Teslas? “Oops”. Carry on.
We’d never be OK with humans driving into oncoming traffic like a suicidal teen. Why are we still OK with suicidal machines doing it?
Not sure where you’re from, but in the US “training” is optional, the tests are worthless (I passed by driving around a parking lot with one stop sign and parallel parking in a space that could fit a bus), and the points barely matter. Humans kill >40,000 other a humans a year on US roads. “We” are absolutely ok with massive amounts of traffic violence, unfortunately.
I agree with everything you wrote, and I wish the system went through a major overhaul when it comes to driving training, testing, and certification.
Drivers should be trained and tested as if they were pilots, IMO. The mere fact that they cause so much devastation should make this an obvious necessity.
FWIW, I’m in Canada, and driver training lowers insurance premiums for a very long time, so I’d imagine that most people go through training. I’d be crazy not to…
kill meeee… I don’t want to suffer Elon any more…KILL ME NOW
Holy shit. What a joke of a technology. This is what you get when your CEO has a Ketamine problem, and decides to direct every level of the business on vibes PERSONALLY, rather than doing actual sound research and development.
And no lidar… My $65 vacuum has lidar.

Thx! I’m bad with computers, I appreciate it.
The second clip is insane! If he was going more than 20mph, he wouldnt have had time to react!
Cant beleive anyone uses that software…
