I guess the yoke might work on American highways, and in parking lots your speed is low enough for a "bad" steering wheel to work well enough.
But on the winding shit roads in Norway, this is probably going to be a really sad solution.
- tyingq 5y agoFWIW, America also has lots of winding shit roads. I want to see a video of this Tesla navigating Lombard street in SFO.
- einarfd 5y agoAmerica is a big country so there has to be some bad roads. But if we compare with Norway by percentage, or if you look at bad roads that are major or important roads, it is no contest. Even the main three roads between the capitol (Oslo) and the second largest city (Bergen). Has parts that will give Lombard street a run for it's money. I would love to see a Tesla with the yoke try to do Trollstigen (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollstigen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollstigen), that I'm sure would be hilarious.
- tyingq 5y agoYes, I agree by percentage. But there are certainly many mountainous areas in the US with winding and poorly maintained roads.
