>Tesla owners can't into driving
>Dies
LOL

wasn't a dump truck, it was a bright white semi taking a hard right turn off a fast road, the tesla's cameras couldn't pick it out against the white overcast sky and the long range radar has trouble with trailers since they're empty underneath

>crashing into trucks turning in front of you full speed is a regular traffic condition in the US

It's the year 2016. Explain to me if you will why American trailers still don't have side underrun guards.

>>15365762
Because companies are slowly putting on aerodynamic skirts instead.

For tesla shills no road condition is normal driving condition

The only acceptable condition is when government shove a gps tracking device into your ass and mind control 24/7 and then ban the regular cars.

it was definitely a fault of the tesla though, that specific set of circumstances is hard to control for. Arguably the driver should have been more attentive though, and tesla needs to be more proactive about telling people it's SEMI autonomous.

This stuff is only getting better by the year though, and it would be dumb to bring the whole field to a halt over one death

>>15365778
I'm pretty sure the skirts are designed to give in to physical force in order to prevent damage when loading trailers with forklifts and such. I imagine they'd be pretty useless in a crash.

also, driver of the semi claimed he heard the harry potter movie playing in the tesla, but that might have been an audibook
still, it would explain the lack of attention of the driver was literally watching a movie instead of the road

>and tesla needs to be more proactive about telling people it's SEMI autonomous
The feature is turned off by default and the onboard computer already displays a huge warning saying the autopilot is a beta and that you should stay attentive at all times if you want to turn on the feature. How much more retard pandering do you want?
