    While I agree, the driver in this article was “intoxicated”, ie drunk as f*. I feel sorry for the tree alone here.

      A Tesla owner who hasn’t paid attention to the “when we say “Autopilot” and “Full Self Driving,” we don’t expect you to believe it” message from the company might think that driving home that way after drinking is being smart and safe.

      They should simply not be allowed to call them that.

        Indeed. I thought the victim should have known because the warnings were functioning properly now, but I didn’t read it correctly; the warning system was fixed end of 2023, the crash was in 2022.

          Thanks, I wondered about that. I knew I had an updates with “improvements “ in this area but never knew what it was like before. My experience seems quite different from what too many Lemmings claim.
