I was listening to Brad Gerstners podcast in which they were talking about Teslas per mile insurance cost being many multiples of “normal cars” and how that affected the chances of robo-taxis in the near future.
But honestly I think the actuaries are calling it right.
Now is the reason because Tesla has worse tech, or because Tesla drivers self select, and are the worst people to give partial self driving to?
- afavour 3y agoI suspect Tesla simply has the latest number of vehicles on the market with this level of driving assist, therefore accidents almost always involve Teslas. To my mind the very name is a core problem. "Autopilot" clearly implies you're able to disengage from driving, no number of asterisks or warning dialogs is going to alter that core perception. But to change the name at this point would be to admit that they're at fault, something Musk would be loathe to do and probably something Tesla's lawyers would really rather not do, too.
