Tesla recalls 362,758 vehicles
I laugh at all the people who spent $15k+ on "beta" software! Lemmings.

I don’t hate the company. However I don’t like self driving feature. Drive your damn car or hire someone that will do it for you if you wish. I wouldn’t laugh if one of my loved ones would be involved in one of those crashes. I would really like if those self driving features would be banned for good. They are needless. Take Uber, bus, plane, bike, bicycle, or any other transportation of your choice but this is not a good way of progress if you ask me.

Fully self driving vehicle technology is still a long ways off from being remotely practical under real world conditions, imo.
At best, we'll be utilizing warning indicators - sounds, lights, etc. (which I fully support) What frightens me, is that Tesla is allowed to test their Beta software thru the Public Sector under real world driving conditions and we're relying on the human element to make quick life & death choices and perform corrections when that software makes catestrophically poor decisions (such as driving straight thru an intersection from a right turn only lane). |

Well. I don’t support that technology. It’s not an airplane that can go on autopilot particularly when on cruising altitude. I think with all the tech and research it can be done in the future, but honestly other than being “cool” what is the real benefit. I like those blind spot and emergency braking, but that lane keeping assist only serves people for them to be able to email and text while driving. I see this all day long especially in highly populated areas.

My car seems perfect. Guess I’m lucky.
Even did autopilot on my way home yesterday after work and I hardly ever use AP. Works awesome. Now I know why people love it.

My autopilot works perfectly. I opened up my Uber app and the guy showed up a few minutes later and I got to my destination without having to drive. Love autopilot.

I gotta think that the Dawn Project, including the Superbowl Ad that they ran, had a lot to do with this. I've got a lot of respect for Dan O'Dowd and how he's used his money. He's been on a jihad against FSD for quite some time and finally getting some traction with the regulators (and maybe the public). That said, I love my DAAP and use it all the time. |
