You will never hear about all the times it's saved people's lives and avoided accidents, so until you show me that it has in fact increased accident rates, a link to a video means nothing, unless you are a journalist and your newspaper is on the verge of going under, in which case you need some juicy drama to sell ads.
- Marciplan 5y agoYou drank quite a lot of that kool-aid, huh
- oxplot 5y agoThat's what well informed looks like from the outside!
- rasz 5y agoVideo of Tesla emergency braking or avoiding hitting a pedestrian that ran in front of it would go viral instantly. Can you show me a few? maybe one?
- oxplot 5y agoSure thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VttbZAr1TBc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VttbZAr1TBc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7otagz2NS0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7otagz2NS0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC1PoqyZc_U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC1PoqyZc_U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbw2ZB0Lbk8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbw2ZB0Lbk8
- oxplot 5y agoThese are FSD Beta videos — I posted the saves videos in a sibling reply.
- oxplot 5y agoOh whoops, I posted the wrong list of videos (those are FSD Beta ones). For emergency braking and "maneuvering" out of the way, Whaam Baam Tesla Cam channel has you covered. Here are a few videos with some examples (and no, they do not go viral - no accident and no drama does not sell ads): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSeIOg4SyOg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSeIOg4SyOg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krKkuIEMXHI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krKkuIEMXHI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZebkknqGkxE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZebkknqGkxE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0_eKr8jnNo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0_eKr8jnNo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHM6xY2Ys4U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHM6xY2Ys4U Oh and I have personally avoided an accident so far when a whole bunch of cars on the highway slammed on the break and autopilot sounded an alarm and braked. So there you go.
- rasz 5y agoSeems you didnt understand me. "pedestrian" is not a car. I meant avoiding hitting living things, not property. 1 Mountain lion runs across, cant see car slowing down at all despite what the description text says. Cat barely makes it and car keeps going. 2 Bird almost hits windshield. Owners own description is he took over. 3 Property and "funny home videos" 4 Well, what do you know. EXACT SAME situation as in Jessa Jones clip happens at @2:20 "all of a sudden a deer ran out onto the road but autopilot didn't react at all, gracie's applied the brakes only moments before impact but it was too late " Living creature hit, $4500 bill an 2 weeks without the car. @6:30 plows into road debris roughly size and shape of a human lying on the road. @9:00 finally a human, on a crosswalk, 50 meters in front. @11:00 Coyote, zero reaction and human takes over to avoid accident. 5 @3:30 At first looks like Tesla finally detects animal on the road, but no. It simply reacts to car in front (braking for the animal) and starts accelerating as soon as the car in front moves on, almost driving over the small deer in the process. Tesla seems to be really good as spotting cars, and might even have a special case for humans on crosswalks, but every single clip with animal ends with accident or human taking over. 4 @6:30 shows what would happen if an unconscious person fell on the road. Off topic: I love clip 4 @11:50. Hitting small wooden post at 20mph = totaled Tesla :o
