Yikes. Glad they're ok
Ditto! They were about 1 foot from hitting the tree head on rather than glancing off, could have easily been fatal. Weirdly small axises of random chance that the world spins on
I still don't understand what made it happen. I kept watching shadows and expecting it to happen earlier.
It makes no damn sense! There were worse shadows. it was totally unpredictable
There's some difference in the fences on the left side at the exact time the car passed by on the other lane. My guess is that the timing of the other car made the software interpret those changes in the input as something moving instead of simply something being different.
They seriously need to pull FSD if it were just a matter of people risking their own lives I wouldn't mind but they're risking everyone else's by driving this glitch machine around.
I thought it might be following the tire tracks but no. It just decided to veer completely off.
I fear the day I’m on the receiving end of a “glitch.” It’s ridiculous that anyone can think these are safe after how many of these videos I’ve seen.
As a motorcyclist... Yeah.
There’s an obvious reason. It’s a fucking Tesla.
Not really worth talking about unless the crash rate is higher than human average.
Imagine if people treated airbags that way XD
If Ford airbags just plain worked, and then Tesla airbags worked 999 times out of 1,000, would the correct answer be to say "well thems the breaks, there is no room for improvement, because dangerously flawed airbags are way safer than no airbags at all."
Like, no. No, no, no. Cars get recalled for flaws that are SO MUCH less dangerous.
It was in stunt mode
you do get this wrong, its a flying car
But does it do it less often than humans?
A good point, but I'm not sure that's where the bar is. How does it compare to other self-driving systems that have lidar, for instance?
Depends on the issue at hand. To get these approved and widespread, better than humans may be the bar.
I have done it zero times, and I am definitely a Human man.
Can confirm, also a human and never caused a car crash
I'm gonna answer your question with a question, as I don't have your answer. When a human wrecks up it's their fault. Who's fault is it when something like this happens? Should ut still be the person in the driver's seat?
No idea how that will turn out. Fully auto, but you have to maintain the vehicle and ensure it's road worthy as the owner.
