Comment on Tesla In 'Self-Drive Mode' Hit By Train After Turning Onto Train Tracks

If only there was a way to avoid the place where trains drive.
I checked first. They didn’t make a turn into a crossing. It turned onto the tracks. Jalopnik says there’s no official statement that it was actually driving under FSD(elusion) but if it was strictly under human driving (or FSD turned itself off after driving off) I guarantee Tesla will invade privacy and slander the driver by next day for the sake of court of public opinion

Just to be clear for others, it did so at a crossing. That’s still obviously not what it should have done and it’s no defence of the self-driving feature, but I read your comment as suggesting it had found its way onto train tracks by some other route.

Thanks. I could have clarified better myself. I meant “didn’t turn from a rail-parallel road onto a crossing to be met by a train it couldn’t reasonably detect due to bad road design”
