- misiti3780 2y agoExactly - That is why I flagged it.
- empath-nirvana 2y agoIf tens of thousands (or really, even a handful) of people were dying from car crashes caused by, for example, brakes failing, then people would absolutely be attacking the manufacturer of the car. If you sell a feature that _does not work_ and it causes deaths, you should be held liable.
- bangaladore 2y agoReading the article or the NHTSA documents would clarify that blame is not placed on Tesla here for the crashes, but blame is placed for not ensuring the driver was paying attention. Drivers had plenty of time to react, but they didn't. This is not trying to say the car quickly jerked into a pedestrian on the side of the road.

- stanleykm 2y agoThis article is about “FSD”/Autopilot and compares what others in the industry do with similar features. This isn’t Tesla autopilot vs Toyota camry drivers.
