Comment on Tesla Steers Onto Train Tracks It Apparently Mistook for a Road, Police Warn

  I just don’t understand how someone can read all the warnings, get a driver’s license (implying their knowledge of the rules of the road) and presumably have years of driving experience and magically think it’s ok to just stop paying attention.

  It doesn’t matter if the car fully promotes itself as self driving, it doesn’t matter if the laws surrounding it still require you to be present and in control.

  It’s no different than 1000hp cars, just because the car is marketed as such, doesn’t magically make it legal to go 200mph.

    You don’t understand why people would think that a feature called “full self-driving” is capable of fully driving the car itself?

      Anyone who agree’s to this warning, and thinks the car is capable of fully driving themselves, is an idiot

      “Full Self-Driving is in early limited access Beta and must be used with additional caution. It may do the wrong thing at the worst time, so you must always keep your hands on the wheel and pay extra attention to the road. Do not become complacent.”

      Now, I don’t know if that warning after it became Full Self Driving (Supervised) became a thing, but at that point its name literally includes SUPERVISED, so really, they’re idiots either way.
