It gets only an EPA-estimated 100 miles of range

Replying to you because I can’t make my own comment (fuck you Kinja)

How often does a person get ejected from a vehicle and then hit another person? Lets play this out, shall we. So lets say worst case scenario that he gets into a head on collision in his parking lot. He would have to go completely through his windshield and then directly through the windshield of the other vehicle.…

WON’T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN???!!!!

Well I will never buy a GM vehicle again. Seatbelts aren’t the COVID vaccine. The only person I can hurt by not buckling up is myself, and I have every right to make that call. I live in a condo building, I pull up to a loading area, unload my groceries into a cart then drive a few hundred yards to my parking space. I…

The SAE literally publishes the document that defines those levels. That’s not the issue.

Enough that it would be an inconvenience and if you can’t see that it would be an inconvenience in these types of situations you’re just being obtuse.

I’d love this when I’m backing my car out of the garage to get it out of the way of something I’m working on, or when I move it from the driveway to the garage, or when I’m moving it to get another car out, or doing one of the million other things that don’t really require a seat belt.

Most cities have lawsuit insurance. Most likely, Dome would get paid, the city’s insurance would go up some more, and no one will question why the city tried to avoid spending a few thousand dollars on speedbumps at the cost of a million dollar lawsuit for negligence.

... except if for any reason you could not take control, the system has no way to get, say, out of an active traffic lane that’s being shared by cars going 75 mph. 

Detroit wouldnt be able to pay any settlement. 

Does it really matter? He was braking. Yes, he was turning, but that is not the only reason someone would be braking - there could have been a child/animal etc in the road in front that the other driver couldn’t see. He was hit by a vehicle at double the limit, a vehicle that also failed accident avoidance 101 -…

Uh, I still don’t think it looks good, and I’m frankly a fan of the damned thing.

What you said is kinda blaming the victim here... even if the driver wasn’t signalling a turn the car slowing down with its brake lights on was more than enough to alert anybody behind to slow down so it’s 100% the truck driver’s fault.

If that’s accurate, I’m 7 ft. 8.

Not even a counterpoint. Just fact.

Counterpoint: it doesn’t

I hope he sues the city and gets a big ass settlement.

Real-world testing is fine. Deployment as a commercial product is not the same thing. Also, L3 implementation with no immediate handoff demands could be done, and data could be gathered that way without the inherent L2 problems. 

Ah yes, parks and churches, the ONLY two reasons that there could be pedestrians somewhere, or a reason to help control speed. What BS luck for someone trying to do good. That truck driver better end up in jail.
