10 seconds? 10 seconds is an eternity.
Some vehicles of similar size might be more than 1/8th of a mile apart in straight line performance in 10 seconds-- let alone the difference once we've got multidimensional vectors.
- ethbr1 3y agoExactly. I was thinking the longest span over which an accident could unfold.
- mlyle 3y agoMy point is-- vehicle dynamics only make a difference in the very short term, because after like a couple of seconds, vehicles can be almost anywhere relative to you even with low performance. (But, they can be quite different on the timescale of a second).
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoit only takes 0.2 seconds to turn a motorcyclist into ground beef If you can't tell apart a bicycle from a 4-cylinder racing bike, let alone a vespa, that's what happnes. And Tesla can't. It also can't read hand signals given by cyclists. It can't tell apart a donkey and a horse.
- mlyle 3y agoI've been saying that vehicle dynamics is useful information in the short term. So if you're trying to argue with me, I don't think you've understood my point. If your goal was to interject an anti-Tesla offtopic comment to the general discussion of vehicle dynamics, it was unwelcome.
