Yep, that too! Part of driving is definitely being able to feel what is happening with the car: weather, road conditions, etc. That will be totally lost in a remotely controlled situation. Not to mention a narrower field of view and diminished depth perception. Unless they go with some very high quality wide angle…
So, in short: Let’s disrupt taxis by moving the driver to a remote location. And make it so they have to pay constant attention to intervene, while being removed from what is actually happening around the car.
Even that’s not enough. How often have you reacted to something behind the wheel after feeling something like a gust of wind, a shake from the tire hitting something, or just eased off the gas because you subconsciously noticed that guy 400 yards up starting to weave a little to saw that car on the shoulder flash its…
Independent vehicles dependent on independent humans, dependent on getting paid by an independent non-auto company dependent on making autos that are independent.
When something very bad inevitably happens, how will Tesla squirm its way out of massive liability lawsuits? They can no longer blame the occupants of the car who cannot do anything. They can’t blame their own employees or hold them accountable beyond firing them.
So the ONLY way this works is if you have a human sitting there watching the entire drive from start to finish, apparently with their hands on a game controller style steering wheel and feet on game controller pedals, basically doing nothing but looking at a screen for, what musk hopes, is the vast majority of the…
First gear: so, do I have this right? A presumably huge room full of low-paid staffers/remote drivers that are expected to pay super-close attention to everything going on around a car by watching screens and listening for warming beeps? Notwithstanding the possibility that they’re going to be chatting with the…
Fiskfuls of dollars was right there.
take your star...
His failure or success is probably defined by him by his living conditions and bank account, which I assume are both fairly comfortable.
Most drunks have quite a bit more reliability and dignity than Fisker.
Can’t wait to buy a bacon cheeseburger from him that has no bacon or cheese, and the meat is actually horse. But hey, at least the bun will look stylish.
I’m convinced that he’s somehow a one-man tax fraud scheme, where corrupt billionaires who need to lose money for tax purposes just throw money.
Maybe food is his calling...just don’t ever get him to name things ever again.
The Acura ZDX?
People accepted a lot more ugly when it cost half as much. Did you know the ZDX was the most expensive Acura you could buy in 2013? Insane.
Also, despite the similarities, the Crosstour is on the Accord platform. The ZDX was a unique all-new platform. Probably one of the biggest investment losses of a major automaker…
They got Tracy, they got Grizz’s house... has anyone checked on Dot Com?
Is this a rule of three thing?
