Craig Doty II, a Tesla owner, narrowly avoided a collision after his vehicle, in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode, allegedly steered towards an oncoming train.
Nighttime dashcam footage from earlier this month in Ohio captured the harrowing scene: Doty’s Tesla rapidly approaching a train with no apparent deceleration. He insisted his Tesla was in Full Self-Driving mode when it barreled towards the train crossing without slowing down.
This fully autonomous argument is beat to death already. Every single Tesla owner knows you’re supposed to pay attention and be ready to take over when necessary. That is such a strawman argument. Nobody blames the car when automatic braking fails to see the car infront of it. It might save your ass if you’re distracted but ultimately it’s always the driver whose responsible. FSD is no different.
If it’s not fully capable of self driving then maybe they shouldn’t call it full self driving
Sure. Make then change the name to something different. I’m fine with that.
Though I still don’t know what most people actually mean by full self driving and how it’s different from what FSD can do right now.
You realize it can be true that the driver is at fault when they crash and that the crash was more likely to happen because you have Elon contradicting his own marketing team constantly and confusing people.
He literally would take reporters in his car and take his hands off the wheel. He just fundamentally doesn’t care about safety now. Probably doesn’t about safety later, just saw a way to make some money.
