I saw the Tesla Robotaxi:

  • Drive into oncoming traffic, getting honked at in the process.
  • Signal a turn and then go straight at a stop sign with turn signal on.
  • Park in a fire lane to drop off the passenger.

And that was in a single 22 minute ride. Not great performance at all.

    If we’re gonna let them on the road, I say that software should get points just like a driver, but when it gets suspended all the cars running that software get shut down.

      How about we leave the driving to people, and not pre-alpha software?

      There’s no accountability for this horribly dangerous driving, so they shouldn’t be on the road. Period.

        Well that’s exactly what their post was about, adding accountability.

          Was it? I didn’t read a single hint of adding accountability in the article.

          But that begs the question: shouldn’t accountability be in place now, and not maybe at some point in the distant future? They are already on the road.

            Not the article, the post from njordamir that you were directly replying to.

            shouldn’t accountability be in place now,

            Again literally what that user was suggesting

              Ah, Ok.

              I agree with accountability, but not with the point system. That’s almost like a “three strikes” rule for drunk drivers.

              That’s not really accountability, that’s handing out free passes.

                That’s almost like a “three strikes” rule for drunk drivers.

                Oh man, that would be amazing. If after 3 strikes, all drunk driving could be eliminated… If only we could be so lucky.

                He’s not talking about a per-vehicle points system, he’s talking about a global points system for Tesla inc. If after a few incidents, essentially Tesla FSD had it’s license revoked across the whole fleet, I mean, that’s pretty strict accountability I’d say. That’s definitely not handing out free passes, it’s more like you get a few warnings and a chance to fix issues before the entire program is ended nation wide.
