I cannot say. It's possible the vehicle was tampered with, it's even plausible that they tried this a million times with 100 different mannequins and did a montage of edge cases. It's possible it only does this because the mannequin doesn't move like a human. It's possible it only does this at that exact location. I don't know.
What I do know is that other people tried to replicate their former "test" [1] and weren't able to. So there's likely something special going on, but I don't know what.

- dragontamer 4y agoBut the tests match the conditions that were replicated at CES 2022 by Luminar Technologies, with a live demo to boot. This isn't the first report to show Tesla running down Mannequins. In fact, there's many, many, many independent tests that show this happening. -------- https://twitter.com/TaylorOgan/status/1478802681141645322 https://twitter.com/TaylorOgan/status/1478802681141645322 This here is a test from a live Demo, with audience members of CES driving the Tesla. I know the Tesla fanbois had a lot to say about the test (ie: they must have held the accelerator pedal, or whatever). This new test from Dawn Project proves that the pedal wasn't being used. --------- This isn't a particularly new problem either. https://carbuzz.com/news/watch-a-tesla-model-3-run-down-a-pedestrian-dummy https://carbuzz.com/news/watch-a-tesla-model-3-run-down-a-pe... As far as I'm concerned, this new test is just further replication of what I already knew. Unless you think there's some kind of worldwide conspiracy, spanning from China, to multiple different companies in the USA and around the world, all conspiring to make Tesla's FSD look bad... I don't see how you get out of this one...
