> Why didn’t the car react to the aircraft? Did it not detect it, or did it fail to judge it’s location? This is a design flaw in Teslas [0]. The radar it uses has trouble seeing large stationary or slow-moving objects. Tesla refuses to use state of the art safety technology while developing these autonomous cars ostensibly in the name of safety. Not one, but two people have lost their lives because a Tesla failed to see a tractor trailer and collided with it [1]. I would have thought after the first time that happened it would be the last, but no. Tesla didn't have to change a thing about their design, and they are still allowed to beta test these things among the unwitting general public. Most everybody hasn't agreed to be part of Tesla's beta program, and yet we're subject to these machines with flawed sensor systems that Tesla just refuses to update to a safer technology. Why? People have died because of this, they're causing damage all over the place, and all they want is to put more out there as fast as possible. Why haven't they fixed the flaw that killed a man in 2016, and then killed a man the same way in 2019. How many bodies and how much damage exactly is enough before Elon Musk is forced to fix this thing? It's absolutely ludicrous these cars are allowed on public roads.
