It was a break period for GM to try and make the thing as fat and form/function as possible.

That would require actually having friends.

Yeah, I skimmed the whole article, and was like “Hey, where’s the part where she imitated her boss?”

“now shut your cock holster you ignorant fucking sasquach.”

First Tesla. Now this. Everyone should only ever drive manual cars. No one has ever died in one of those right?

The obvious answer is that the car belonged to MIB, and the driver of the go-kart was an alien with a doomsday device.

Agreed. Trucks sometime shave to be dicks. Not necessarily cutting cars off, but sometimes you need to just force your way out when there is enough room for traffic to safely stop or you will literally NEVER be able to move.

But he instead of removing himself from the situation and avoiding it kept up and started riding in tandem while berating her. What started as an oblivious driver merging improperly turned into an asshole rider almost turning it into a road rage incident.

Wow, I normally defend riders in most situations, but that was a clear lack of defensive driving. I see this kind of thing almost every day and have never seen anyone ticketed just for being an oblivious dumbass (Honda). She didn't seem aggressive, just stupid. Him, on the other hand...I always say that Type A…

Situations like this are best described as a confluence of assholes.

I am a cardiac surgeon at an academic institution where I train young doctors to do complex operations. In the operating room for key components of the operation I throw every stitch and make every cut. Why? If the trainee makes a mistake there is an inherent reaction time lag as the trainee first starts making the…

Based on the info available so far, absolutely. I’m disappointed how far down the comments I had to go to see this pointed out.

Your example is not ridiculous. There is a whole study on the ethics of automation. There are no easy answers.

I think it would be an interesting option if the autonomous cars came with options as to which lives to prioritize.

Being that he named the car, was an ardent user, video taped the autoresponse, and blogged about it I guarantee his inscription will read “first to be killed by an autonomous car”

Not really, the truck is crossing multiple lanes in a short space and is approaching the Tesla almost even with the car. If the truck was almost clear and had a blinker on then you would be right. If it was me in my car there would have been a chance for a minor collision in that case as my car does not avoid shit for…

Yeah there have been many interesting articles on why autonomous vehicles inherently create a big dilemma. Here is the scenario, you’re going down a 2 lane road, another autonomous car is heading in the opposite direction. It’s just you in your car, a whole family in the other car... a tree suddenly falls in front of…

I’m just fucking terrified the car saved him from a side impact once as if to deliberately give him a false sense of security, makes u think

Too soon junior
