Aren't they basically suicide booths at this point?
- With extra steps.
Tesla stock holders: “Bullish!”
Everyone else: “But why though?”
peak transport crushing tech-bro garbage the symbolism is as subtle as a brick through a dealership window
Ok libs way to get triggered by problems the incredibly smart AI programmers at Tesla will figure out in a matter of weeks, months most.
The ROBOTS didn't fail here and you would know that if you were as smart as I am.
What failed was Elon Musk does not understand that trains exist and thus neither are his cars allowed to. This isn't OUR fault ok? Rules are rules.
Evidence: see hyperloop
That the article says "hit by train" sounds like an example where news articles assigns unecessary blame to the train.
I love trains so much.
Stop. Driver, in Tesla, shall be supervising "Self-Drive Mode" (level 2 assistance BTW) at any time.
I hope they have good insurance, driver to blame here.
- Nah, Tesla advertises it with a wink and a nod that it’s actually full self driving.
- What type of insurance covers destruction of car by deliberate driver choice?
- Sadly thats legally correct.
  I really would love if tesla had to pay for something like this.
  Its not even the first to drive on tracks
- Shouldn't a self-driving car be, you know, trained to recognize things it shouldn't automatically drive on? Like train tracks? Wonder how you're going to blame the passenger when the robotaxi does this.
