The key part of this title is "almost", and this was the more advanced system that Tesla has not released yet. The autopilot function is meant to reduce the risk of an accident by working in tandem with the physical driver.
What this kid was doing was extremely dangerous. |
I believe freeway driving is done by a self driving Tesla extremely well.
In urban traffic it can’t always figure out every scenario.
Based on other comments I’ve seen from others, Tesla’s can basically drive from Calgary to Edmonton, with no intervention, perfectly safely.
I have a hard time calling this dangerous, because in reality, it wasn’t particularly dangerous. Not saying that the driver didn’t commit an offence - on top of the speeding. There’s certainly some carelessness there. Stunting maybe.
But again, the laws need to ready to adapt for the time in the somewhat near future where cars will be 100% safe to drive autonomously in all situations.
