It’s the best NSX

I got to look in, on, under, and inside the new M8 at Daytona. What a breathtakingly beautiful piece of engineering.

You’ll get a lot of hate for your post, but that’s just the way it goes on topics that bring out passionate views.

2006 Honda Odyssey LX is worth about $4.5k (clean trade in, which is probably what you can expect to get from insurance payout). At $922/year for full coverage, you are paying about 20% of the value of the car each year.

Uber invented absolutely no “tech” to make their app... just because a company uses technology, doesn’t make it a technology company.

Quoting DuhJango here, from a response to me in another article about the crash:

Progress is what Tesla has been doing. Some people have been in fatal accidents, but they were preventable and warnings were present to attempt to prevent them. You notice that, in those cases, people call for a name change or a change in the marketing of the system because they recognize that Autopilot is a limited…

Yes, but that wasn’t the point of the argument.

Moving fast is exactly the problem with self-driving tech. There should absolutely not be testing happening on public roadways yet.

Car is equipped with LIDAR and multiple other night and day sensors to detect exactly that sort of thing. Those sensors are absurdly expensive and if they couldn’t detect a person in the middle of the road, then what is the point of those sensors at all? At first I was defending the tech, but from this video it was…

Agreed. What the hell. This was not a situation of someone darting out behind an obstructed view. If it was day time, any semi-competent driver will see the pedestrian. It shouldn’t matter what time of day it is for an sensor-laden autonomous vehicle, and should have spotted the pedestrian the moment she was in the…

She appears “invisible” thanks to the video’s poor resolution. In real life, the safety operator would have been able to see her a couple of seconds sooner (if he had been watching).

She’s invisible to us on a video recording. She shouldn’t be invisible to the sensors on an autonomous vehicle.

This. When it first happened, from descriptions I assumed she darted from the sidewalk or was walking on a sidewalk and somehow stepped right in front of the car. This video just shows the driver not paying attention at all and she was in the middle of the road. While she was jaywalking, the sensors should’ve picked…

Unavoidable my ass! Having found the video, if these self driving cars are supposed to have such sophisticated sensors it should totally have been able to detect her in time to avoid her, or at least make an attempt.

Nope, ugly.

Why are you being so mean?

Long time reader, 1st time writer. I run a Nissan dealership in Alberta, Canada and I always enjoy your car buying articles. You are 100% correct on this. When I price a used vehicle, I am competing with dealers from all across the country. Customers are smart, they do their research and if I am over priced on a unit,…
