Comment on Tesla bait-and-switch: Cybertruck owners won't get Autosteer feature they paid for
Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 5 days agoMy base model 2019 Sonata has pretty decent blind spot monitoring too. A couple of days after I got the car it’s blind spot monitoring saw a speeding vehicle going too fast for me to see it coming (they turned off of another street a handful of houses up then must’ve floored the gas) as I was backing out and went flying past. It literally saw the speeding car through another vehicle and gave me enough warning to stop safely.
Sometimes it does yell at me that a fence is present at the edge of the lane I’m merging into, but it’s just alerting beeping that can be disabled with 1 physical button press so it’s very useful for rush hour beltline driving, even if I have yet to have it spot a vehicle I haven’t in any other situations

i think this is why i’m such a fan of driver assists - not so-called “autonomous” driving, but driver assists: they literally help you stay more aware of your surroundings (in your case, blind spot monitoring) so you can make better driving inputs. we should have them as standard by law on every new car, not whatever bullshit sci-fi stuff fElon is trying to get up to
