Again with nonsense.

Yes, you are required to give right of way before driving over another lane (especially when going AGAINST traffic) as seen in this police diagram. The driver of the Truck is pending criminal charges.

There are many factors that influence range, like all cars, direction of wind, cold temperature and in case of Russia, poor roads.

Superchargers are meant for long distance charging, not charging locally. In the US the amount of people who live in apartment buildings is only 13%. If you live in a luxury condo, chances are you have a dedicated spot which you can install charging into. Some condos in Florida already have chargers.

lol, you are speaking nonsense. Fact of the matter is, majority of cars that get into car accidents have wheels. Ban wheels. Without wheels you won’t have car accidents.

No, automatic drive isn’t a yes/no proposition. A responsible human driving the car is a proposition for driving as a whole, not just for automatic drive.

Musk exact statement was that if autopilot was on it would have prevented the crash. It says in the article the guy had 40 seconds to respond. Which he did at 15 seconds and caused the crash due to oversteering.

It just has to be reliable enough relatively, which it is.

Trusting something is not the same thing as being reckless and watching a DVD (which is illegal). The first few times I was put in a car, I felt anxious just like on an airplane. Then after many hours flying on both airplanes and driving/being driven in a car I felt confidence and trust.

So what do you suggest we change the name of autopilot on airplanes to then?

So you are saying every car in the world is defective? Cause they would all do that unless the driver actually decides to stop or move the car.

Tesla did not miss any sales targets, they missed delivery targets due to delays. Not the same thing as lack of sales.

They are, but its not the same thing as saying there is a defect.

The failure is extremely rare, and the monitoring is not that difficult, like all things just a matter of getting used to. Also in scenarios like stop and go traffic which is the most annoying you don’t even need to because it is pretty straight forward.

You should point out that the NHTSA report is asking for “alleged defect” not just “defect”. Aka, at this point the NHTSA is not claiming that there is any such defect.

Autopilot is ready for the road just fine. But like all things in life, the transition is full of luddites who try to sensationalize every little thing. Not to mention people taking advantage of the situation.

You mean after that government got caught rigging the process in ULA’s favor? And only had to give up those contracts because they got caught?

That makes 0 sense. It isn’t like he was retweating videos of people abusing autopilot, he was retweating videos where the autosteer feature in autopilot help prevent a crash, which it does.

The system has NEVER been marketed as fully autonomous.

It is legal, it is a level 2 automation system. Yes, Tesla has the best level 2 system of any competitor, but it is still a level 2 system.
