Yeah same experiences here, already feeling like robot cars are much safer for cyclists and pedestrians than aggressive humans

- NegativeLatency 5y agoI’d trust a waymo more than a tesla though
- ajross 5y agoTesla FSD beta has something like three orders of magnitude more miles driven under full autonomy now, almost all of it by non-corporate users free to post whatever mistakes or mishaps they can find. Waymo has one (now two) heavily geofenced service areas with a few dozen cars. It won't take highways. It won't enter certain intersections or transit certain neighborhoods. Just recognize that there's some level of cherry-picking error in this kind of analysis. FSD beta and Waymo both make mistakes (mine curbed a tire once, there's the now-famous video of the car hitting the plastic bollard in San Jose, etc...), but you're going to see far more of those from one system than the other.
- ra7 5y ago> Tesla FSD beta has something like three orders of magnitude more miles driven under full autonomy now Wait. “Keep your hands on the wheel” drives are NOT fully autonomous. By definition.
- hiddencost 5y agoGlad to see this is getting thoroughly downvoted. -> Tesla is actively killing people. -> Tesla has much higher rate of requiring driver intervention, and mostly drives in safer environments. I really struggle w/ how to communicate to non-industry people how deeply wrong-misleading the Tesla pitch is.
- NegativeLatency 5y ago> Waymo has one (now two) heavily geofenced service areas with a few dozen cars. It won't take highways. It won't enter certain intersections or transit certain neighborhoods. Literally this is why I trust it more, the people running the company are willing to realistically evaluate the limitations of their systems and act responsibly
- kfarr 5y agoTotes. "self driving" Teslas are downright scary for cyclists
- bduerst 5y agoTesla self driving is scary for everyone. There's more than just a few crashes and concerns regarding it's capabilities: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Autopilot#Safety_concerns https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Autopilot#Safety_concern...
- judge2020 5y agoThe Tesla pedestrian AEB systems (and those on any vehicle made in the last 5 years) are pretty good regardless.
