good job Tesla

Still safer than human drivers

Anything used incorrectly can be dangerous. People who are scared by this need to understand that

Tesla elonmusk

Stop letting these cars drive you. Gawd damn

Oh this explains Musks stupid “im a republican now” shit yesterday

For starters they should stop calling it 'autopilot'. It's an advanced driver assistant. Pretty cool stuff but by no means intended to allow the driver to take the eyes off the road (currently). The name 'autopilot' implies a level of competency which is just not given (for now).

The most expensive beta testing in history

Disable autopilot immediately. It is experimental at best.

This is going to make the rounds. Police wouldn’t say if Autopilot was engaged, let’s wait for the full report before clickbaiting a headline shall we. Let’s also not forget that 3 people have lost their lives & 3 families are grieving at the moment over those lives.

Is this even journalism or just click bait? The story clearly states that it is yet unknown whether autopilot was even engaged. Why bother with real journalism?! Unfollowing you engadget.

it would never happen in turbo tomy

Wer wird bei einem Schuldspruch bestraft? Der Ingenieur, der Autopilot entwickelt hat oder Tesla als Firma?
