Comment on Turquoise taillights tell you this Mercedes is driving autonomously
abhibeckert@lemmy.world 10 months agoI’m confused. Have you seriously never encountered a human driver who goes slower than you’d like or doesn’t merge int a space you gave them? Sometimes they don’t even know the blinkers are on, or indicate left them turn right.
For me, especially as a motorbike rider, the Turquoise indicator would give me confidence that the car isn’t going to do something monumentally stupid and get me killed.

That’s another good reason. It’s basically about managing expectations for the vehicle. Good or bad doesn’t much matter.

Found the person who doesn’t own a Tesla.
My Tesla did monumentally stupid things on the regular on autopilot. Like phantom braking. It would slam on the brakes while doing 65 on the highway because of shadows. You’d be flying over my hood in your bike.
