Your Uber driver doesn’t follow the letter of the law and I’ve ridden with several that were not what I consider safe.  

The question is should a self driving car follow the letter of the law or should it try to drive like a human since its sharing the road with them?  I think the latter.  In many cases, following the letter of the law is dangerous and could create road rage from others.  The driver is of course responsible for…

That has been fixed.  It now slows down and presents a message anytime you are around flashing emergency lights.

It simple. The goal is for FSD to drive like (or better than) a good HUMAN driver because it’s sharing the road with other humans. Driving to the letter of the law would cause accidents and road rage. Tesla has the right approach.

How does this entire article not contain a sentence that says something to the effect of turning radius with Trail Turn Assist on is X and without is Y?

Most likely stock that was set aside for warranty/repairs but has now been deemed available for new car production.  Given the current supply chain shortages, this seems perfectly valid to me.  Tesla is up front about it and if your cool with this and want your car today, click buy.  Otherwise, get in line like…

This is what was actually filmed. You can tell CNN edited it with an agenda.

“What is kind of alarming, and what supports my main issues with all Level 2 semi-automated systems, were some tweets from people suggesting that their own driving abilities are being eroded from their long-time reliance on the FSD system”

...That nobody test-driving its driver-assistance tech has crashed into a school bus...

Yeah. That would be the first time anyone has ever crashed into a bus...

I’m surprised - and pleased - to see Jalopnik cover this. They seemed to report the original incident with glee. Wouldn’t it be nice if the media - all media - didn’t jump to conclusions before all facts of situations are known?

3rd gear: She sits on the board of a Lidar company. Kind of relevant.

And people like you amaze me. This is 100% the fault of this single driver yet people like you would ban/restrict/limit cars from everyone else while knowing it will do NOTHING to prevent the issue from happening again. There are hundreds of thousands of safe drivers with high power cars that you have no right to take…

“Hello, straw man. The real issue is how quickly the car accelerates to reach triple digits. Unless you’re experienced it’s super easy to lose control.”

So, this street is seeing way mo traffic than usual.  :rim shot:

I’m not sure.  I decided not to risk it so when I drove manually, I drove 100% manually without cruise just to make sure I didn’t drive the miles and not get credit for them.

As someone with a Tesla who played the game, here’s my take. First, the safety score is not perfect but on the whole, will encourage you to drive safer. It should really be looked at as an environmental safety score since it will be affected by things outside your control such as other drivers cutting you off or…

“While “a moose walks into the road” may seem like a niche test case for many American drivers, it’s an important circumstance to consider in colder climates.”

It really has nothing to do with cold climates. Substitute a moose with a kid chasing a ball or on a skateboard etc. and this is relevant to everyone.

“That said, in my immediate experience, if a gas powered car were to lose power on the highway, it would not automatically jam itself into park ...”

I had an 1988 Eagle Premiere (remember those?) that did just that. Brand new, 3 weeks old, transmission locked up in the middle of the freeway with zero warning. It was a…

How is it sneaky to release a fix to a serious problem (even if its only a partial fix)? That is what is supposed to happen. Feds investigate. They’ve told Tesla to address it. Tesla immediately releases patch (presumably first of many that will address other use cases). Once again, Jalopnik = Tesla hate.

They are trying to launch an IPO. Of course they will say it was the drivers fault and the truck worked perfectly. That said, I think it was probably peddle misapplication but even if it wasn’t, there is no way the truck will ever be at fault.
