“getting rid of the stalks for turn signals” ?
“Is sitting side-by-side in a restaurant booth adorable or odd?”
“As for the other driver, they didn’t bother to stop though they might not have realized that their laziness caused a potentially life threatening crash. Just one of the many ways this person is apparently oblivious to the world around them.”
What else, if anything, is Tesla leaving off of its cars in the name of production goals?
If you don’t want to watch the video : in order - wrong lane, stopping at not-a-stop-sign, nearly turning left in front of a truck, crossing a solid white line to turn left, nearly turning into the wrong lane (would have been an accident if anyone had been in that lane), blowing a red light, wrong lane, shallow turn…
People willing to beta test MY life by allowing THEIR car to do shit like this - that’s what’s crazy. We’re fast approaching the day when a Tesla will plow a pedestrian on camera and that will be the end of this debate because the feds will make goddamn fucking sure of it.
Mah fReEdUmBs does not give you the right to be a cunt in a private establishment. Aircraft are private establishments, owned by private companies. Play by the rules or fuck off.
This, all the way. I watched this video a few months ago and thought (a) fucking great idea and (b) America would never buy into something so logical.
I think the first part of the plan should be to ensure that Electrify America chargers actually (a) deliver the power they’re allegedly capable of and (b) stop over-billing for that power.
My I-pace is capable of pulling a max rate of 100kWh when the battery is really low. I don’t have any problems getting that for the…
That’s actually not a bad argument.
I’ve lost that argument many times on Jalopnik. Apparently I don’t know anything because I’ve only been involved in autonomy with aircraft, ships, trucks and cars since 1990. People think FSD is magical and that computers can solve everything, and willingly overlook the obvious.
In all seriousness, I’m wondering how far away the class-action lawsuit is, from everyone who paid Tesla $10k or $12k for FSD.
“driving without a seatbelt” ??
Took a “driverless” car for a ride at CES in Vegas in the before-times. Was the most terrifying 15 minutes I’ve ever spent in a car. Never again.
Remote shutdown? *cough* OnStar *cough*
Self-loading cargo is always the issue. Even on trains - in the UK one train company CEO once said “we’d be able to run on-time if it wasn’t for all the bloody passengers!” LOL
Use whatever is on the two Presidential 747's ....
Once they stop making their rear suspension components out of sawdust and hamster droppings, they’ve got something. I think I lost count of the number of times I saw one of the Audis with the rear-end in pieces because of suspension arm / damper / mount issues.
That’s the opening scene from Christmas Vacation though ...
Weeeellllll I get your point about tourists and slowpokes. The roads up above Salt Lake City are awesome when they’re not clogged with people in Class-1 motorhomes trying to do switchbacks on a road that is slightly narrower than a normal car......
