If The Prime Had This One Tesla Feature...

if the prime had a full size hatch, i'd probably already own one. but that's probably not a tesla feature.
if it had the ford feature of letting you dig into the battery when you need just a bit more to reach your destination, that would be tempting.

 

Is it just me or does that Tesla light show remind you of this?

 

Not compared to the original.

 

Oh, their poor neighbors......

 

If autopilot didn't detect that, you would be slower both due to waiting for autopilot and due to your lack of attention.

That's basically how this happened:

 

Here's another video but the autopilot works this time. The system works great as long as the driver doesn't rely on it. Also, how do people know if autopilot is engaged if they were never even in the Tesla. This was just a dash cam from another car.

 

tesla knows everything that's happening in their cars at all times.

 

I know it was in the video I posted because I found where the driver of that car posted on Reddit about the accident.

 

new rule: for every time @Lee Jay posts something negative about Tesla, everyone does a shot! We would all be drunk before noon.

 

You probably think I hate Tesla or Elon or electric cars or electric vehicles or something.

The reality of the situation is likely so far from what you think, you aren't even in the same universe.

 

I'd hate to see how you talk about things you truly dislike then.

 

If people want to find one-off videos of bad things happening in any car, they can.
I can show you a video of a "unintended acceleration" event with an officer in control of a Prius.
What is important is the rate of these events.
The autopilot equipped Tesla vehicle have a lower rate of accidents than those without. That is what it comes down to.

 

Has nothing to do with like or dislike, just reality.

 

In other words...you are the ultimate truth maker. How very American of you.

 

Maybe you could try to understand the point I was making when I posted that video. The text I wrote with it might give you a clue:

I was pointing out an incident where a regular, alert driver allowed autopilot to hit a stationary object in near-ideal conditions because the fact that autopilot was operating slowed the response of the driver. In other words, my post was about just what I said it was about - autopilot slowing driver response.
