There are lots of things that are legal, yet still dangerous. Like I said previously, if either me or anyone in my family is hurt or killed by a self-driving vehicle, or another other vehicle being operated in a reckless manner, I will sue the driver into oblivion. And I have very deep pockets.

If someone gets hurt due to someone else's fault, you take it to court. Let's say someone drives 1200 miles with just gas stops with no breaks and then falls asleep and kills a family.. Same thing. It doesn't matter what the reason is, you can of course sue the guilty party. |

First of all, AUTOPILOT is NOT designed for local roads. It works on them but needs full supervision as it won't stop at stop signs or red lights or for a flag man. FSD still make mistakes around town.. As I suspected, all those incidents did not happen on the highway. I pointed out many times that around town, supervision is needed. I also pointed out hat AUTOPILOT is only safe in the middle lane or left lane but not in the right lane. Highway driving is nowhere near the complexity of city driving or county roads etc. |

I know it sucks around town... and in most other situations... so the only time I don't pay attention like I am supposed to be doing is on the highway where I will absolutely never encounter an abnormal situation and where absolutely nothing could ever go wrong. Quote:

He MAY HAVE BEEN on Autopilot https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...t/73459135007/ Not proven at this point. Furthermore, we don't know if he travelled in the right lane or not. As I pointed out, I do NOT travel in the right lane on Autopilot as it's not designed to handle merging traffic. So, first of all, we don't know if he really was on autopilot (the investigation will find out if he was or not) and furthermore, he may have been in the right lane. There have been many stories of claims that a vehicle was on autopilot when it crashed and after looking at the data, it was not. FACTS > CLAIMS |

Just becauase something is named a Highway doesn't mean that it is one.. Ever heard of Federal Highway in Ford Lauderdale?? It's a regular street with lights that is named Highway.. Same goes for Highway 522. It has a FREEWAY section but it is a street that his lights. |

May have been?
Was it the guy who smashed into the barriers that "may have been"? Quote:
![]() By "may have been" in this case, you mean even Tesla has acknowledged that was the case. Or was it the one that ran over the motorcycle that "may have been"? Quote:
But yea, just 1 guy on a motorcycle getting run over. No big deal as long as it helps Tesla get better. Do you ever stop f**king lying? |

You have to understand how autopilot works. It follows a land and keeps the distance to vehicles in front. If you have a highway with LEFT exits, don't go in the left lane as autopilot may have issues when reaching such exist. You shouldn't stay in the left lane as merging traffic can cause issues. Left lane is fine as long as the highway has no left exits. Right lane is not a good idea with autopilot. This scenario appears that this happened right after a left exit. My commute does NOT involve any left exits, so center or right lane are fine for autopilot. |

He probably missed the part of it only working in the middle lane when he clicked the disclaimer.
So what you're saying is that Tesla's Autopilot and FSD is no better than damn near every car made in the last 5 years that can keep itself in the middle lane down the highway, adjust to the speed in front of them, and stop if required. Anything other than that is a pretty high likelihood that you're going to kill either yourself or someone else. What an amazing system Elon has created. ![]() |

1) it keeps the car centered in the travel lane 2) it will keep the distance to the car in front of you. If a lane splits or a lane joins the travel lane, the system may not act correctly AS IT IS NOT DESIGNED FOR IT! So, if the lane you are travelling splits, the system can get confused as it is not designed for that. I pointed out MANY times that I only use autopilot in the MIDDLE LANE. If I know that the highway I'm travelling has no LEFT exits, I may choose the left lane as well but if I don't know the highway, I will always travel in the middle lane as I have a brain and I understand what autopilot does. I know every inch of my commute route. If I would be travelling on a street that I'm not familiar with, I would pay more attention. |
