   Tesla Full Self Driving requires human intervention every 13 miles

   It gave pedestrians room but ran red lights and crossed into oncoming traffic.

     @arstechnica should Tesla not be fined to hell and back for fraud? This is not full self driving. This is driver assist. And it sounds like it shouldn't be allowed on the roads!

     @arstechnica first rule of driving is don’t hit anything, and the second rule is don’t put yourself in a situation where you will get hit.

     @arstechnica Who would trust Elon Musk to drive their car ? He can't even run a social media site without crashing it.

     @arstechnica But Elon's spying works fine: https://electrek.co/2023/09/15/musk-wanted-to-use-tesla-cameras-to-spy-on-drivers-and-win-autopilot-lawsuits/

     @arstechnica Did anyone ever consider that it is the driving itself that keeps drivers alert? Unless it's fully autonomous, what's the point and how safe is it once you consider waning attention?

     @arstechnica In the UK that's either "careless driving" or "dangerous driving", depending on how a court views it. Either is enough to put your licence at risk. And using full self-drive is automatically "driving without due care and consideration" if you rely on it to the extent that you're not in full control at all times.
     If it works to a far higher standard than a well above average driver in all possible circumstances, allow it. Otherwise get it off the damn public roads.
