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.
@Teppichbrand @rosschie just like radium. A technology those who don’t understand technology thinks is ready but isn’t. So yes let’s just let these people use us as Guinea pigs. People will die. Do you find people dying to let Elon get a few more bucks an ok thing? Personally as someone who has built technology my whole life I’d like it fully baked before it’s put around peoples children.
Don’t get me wrong, I hate cars. But people are already dying from them, because humans make mistakes and drive reclesly. Don’t you think traffic with 100% self-driving cars would be safer because AI is more careful? New technology has got to start start somewhere. Feels a little “not in my backyard” to me. Yes cyclists are unsafe, but not because of Teslas self-driving EVs.
