You think it's regulation issue. I say it's because it's overtrust for an almost working system.
If something gets good enough you will rely on it more and more. It will work, until it doesn't.
- camjohnson26 6y agoAnd the systems fail in ways that a human wouldn’t which makes it more dangerous. Teslas often “shadow brake” when driving under overpasses or overhead signs because the radar system gets confused.
- alexanderdmitri 6y agoThis is what gets me. A big part driving safety is defensive, ie monitoring the other drivers around you. It's relatively easy to pick out distracted, erratic or risk-taking drivers from a handful of simple queues. Very much not the case with software driven autopilot routines from an increasing number of vendors. So accidents may go down where humans are at fault, but I find it more unsettling overall, as I have less control to take acceptable safety precautions.
- webmobdev 6y agoYes, defensive driving is the norm because we humans are fallible. If all the cars on the road were self-driven, then it would be a different story.
- camjohnson26 6y agoAssuming self driving cars will be infallible.
- belltaco 6y ago>And the systems fail in ways that a human wouldn’t which makes it more dangerous Not necessarily, because humans fail in ways that Tesla autopilot wouldn't. 1.5 million people are killed in road accidents every year. 54 million people are injured.
