A place to discuss problems of car centric infrastructure or how it hurts us all. Let's explore the bad world of Cars!

Now here's a fun experiment: start from the beginning, and pause as soon as you think the car is about to do something dangerous. That's your correction time - I was probably front wheels off the road before I paused.
I was front wheels off the road by the time my reaction time hit the mouse button.
And a mouse button is faster to activate than a steering wheel :,|
Just wait for the "self-driving" tractor trailers...
Aurora Innovation already has 20 trucks on a highway in Texas as a pilot program. Unlike Tesla's design, they don't rely on cameras and have LIDAR/RADAR all over the place.
I'm actually research Aurora right now for another piece.
Much better technical setup than Tesla. Tesla isn't even trying to apply their consumer FSD tech to their semi product.
Thank God elon defunded the agency overseeing his shitty cars
Good thing it doesn’t have LIDAR sensors on the front, repair would be much more expensive
Tap for spoiler
/s
Does insurance cover that?
Perhaps an “unauthorized modification” was made to the FSD stack. Maybe late at night. Possibly by a ketamine addict.
Inb4 Elon tweets that this actually is a good thing, then tries to claim that the car will protect the driver from harm. Even though the car literally crashed itself 🫠
"wow, ummmmmm--" stares off into space for 5 ketamine-soaked seconds "... The cyber-airbags worked better than designed." - Elon
$TSLA: Rises 420.69% after-hours
Flipping an EV is no small feat, especially a sedan. The damned center of gravity is basically at the middle of the wheels.
Ditches can make anything possible.
No kidding!
Y'know... I would suggest a decent proof of FSD being worthless garbage is the fact you'd think a car which can drive itself should probably be able to automatically stop itself.
Even when under manual control the car should be able to go "ah shit this aint the road anymore, those are some trees and a fence I'm headed towards way too fast" and try to stop and perform risk mitigating maneuvers.
After that we can talk about whether the car might be able to drive itself.
Oh RIGHT... THAT.
"Tesla, return to origin."
"Researching my origin... ... ... Oh my God... " screech
what else was it suppose to do, its trying to be autonomous.
Yeah well, machine learning for controlling cars works most of the time. Sometimes it doesn't.
That feels like a great reason to not apply machine learning to a problem.
Someone has spoken against our glorious tech leader Elmo....
Do you folks remember a DLC mission in watchdogs 2 ? Hmmmm....
