Tesla Auto Pilot Deaths....

It is called “auto pilot” but you are not supposed to trust it to drive the car.

If you do trust it (to drive the car) you might get driven into the guard rail. That might result in your funeral.

And……If that event should occur Tesla would like you to know it is all your fault. Dumb azz .

You should know not to trust their sh*tty technology.

But what is the point of having something called “autopilot” if the end result is you maybe killed.

If you have to be ready (at all times) to drive the car then just drive the car. What is the point of this?

You can’t have the car making decisions and the driver also making decisions. Someone has to be in control. If the car is in control, and making terrible decisions, than (as far as I can tell) that is all bad.

Even if the driver is paying attention, and ready to override the autopilot, that might not be possible when on the highway going 70. Things are happening fast. If the car makes a poor decision you don’t have a lot of time to correct that before you crash.

So if that is the case then just forget the autopilot. It serves no purpose.

Tesla can say it is safer to drive with autopilot but that is not what I see. I would prefer to just keep control and not end up in the guard rail.
