So at what point will Teslas also start snitching on their own owners and other drivers for driving too fast, being in the wrong place at the time a crime happened and reporting copyrighted music played in the wrong country?
Is there already a design doc for that somewhere in Teslas ticketing system?
- exadeci 5y agoThe car was technically Tesla's property they contracted the repo agent because the owner stopped paying the finance so as long as you haven't finished paying your car to Tesla it makes sense for it to still be their property. The issue would be if they start doing this for illegal parking or similar stuff.
- test6554 5y agoOnce all cars are self-driving, I doubt they will exceed the speed limit by much. But perhaps speed limits will increase in some places.
- izacus 5y agoWell, the autopilot cameras can easily report OTHER drivers not driving correctly.

- mellavora 5y agowell, they are planning on offering their own car insurance program. Funny thing is, the initial sell of Tesla was 'high performance', the kind of driving which tends to encourage high-risk behaviours. so now it is "you can buy this great car with all this high-performance stuff, but we'll know every time you use it and dock you on insurance rates to compensate"
- bloomark 5y agoThey already provide their own insurance. My brother's Model Y, that he has Tesla insurance for in CA, makes wonky noises when he's engaging in unsafe driving (not looking at the road, breaking too late, etc) and he said it might affect his insurance rate as well.
