Are you saying a Lexus has never had a driver fatality from inattention? That seems ridiculous. What are you actually claiming here? If Lexus is safer than Tesla that seems like something someone can measure. Have they?
- MBCook 4y ago> Are you saying a Lexus has never had a driver fatality from inattention? That appears to be a deliberate misreading. The GP was pointing out Tesla refused to follow well known best practices from around the beginning of Model S creation. Despite it being pointed out to them as a reckless choice numerous times. They never said Lexus was perfect, they showed evidence Lexus appears to have taken the risks involved seriously in a way Tesla hasn’t, as evidenced by numerous recommendations from NHTSA that they did not follow or followed belatedly.
- BoorishBears 4y agoI gave a concrete example of a systematic decision that Tesla is making that has resulted in avoidable deaths. I showed how a comparable system was trivially capable of avoiding the same cause of death due to its manufacturer making a decision in the opposite direction of Tesla: Putting human life above the marketability of a piece of tech. If you want to somehow "interpret" into saying no one has ever died driven distracted in a Lexus, you're free to, but that's a leap I won't bother engaging with. There's always some room for (mis)interpretation, but I think you're taking a football field on this one.
