The election broke a lot of people and the daily negative Tesla and political posts are HN's way of compartmentalizing them. Otherwise they would metastasize all over the entire site.
I agree with you. It could put a huge dent in the tens of thousands of American lives lost every year if autonomous driving was mandated. Barring that, at least I'll protect my own family by using self-driving in the largest possible car (truck) I can buy.
- carlgreene 10mo agoI have such a difficult time with this. Not the self driving part, but the largest possible car/truck part. As a cyclist in a very truck-and-large-car-obsessed state I really hate them and their drivers scare me. And because of that I have a really hard time convincing myself that I should be in one too vs. a smaller more practical car. But at the same time I realize that my family getting hit in a Honda Accord (most likely by a much larger car) is going to be quite a bit worse than if we get hit in a Cybertruck or GMC Sierra.

- qwerpy 10mo agoWould you rather share the road with a Cybertruck that's driving itself with all the cameras and sensors and collision avoidance features, or a Honda Civic being driven by a human who could be young/old/on their cell phone/fleeing police?
