zackster what’s your point in posting a 3 year-old video of a car fire which happened in Moscow after it crashed in to a truck and in which all passengers got out unharmed, and when other cars in the US catch fire more frequently than Teslas?

    Twitter is a bollix like that, you think you’re on the cutting edge of the Elon Musk zeitgeist one minute, the next you’re coming off like a total handicapper.

    Still think the cyber truck is proper cool

      hugopal the point is that the car crashed itself when the driver expected it to be using auto assist.

        Hugo’s a one man car crash.

        OLB’s in the house!

        Perhaps it was in ‘female driver mode’?

        A LOL for Dutchy!

        And a perfect opportunity to ask: Is there a ‘Dutchy Driver Mode’, where it crawls to 5 miles an hour and drives itself past schools while you hang out the window offering sweets?

        Is there an Ed driving mode where it careens through roofs?

        bosstrabs There is a Mills driving mode where it just chugs for 2 hours, going nowhere.

        Lol!

        Mills is the setting where passengers set fire to themselves.

        Far different from zackster mode where everyone goes 140 for 4 hour, arrives home safely, and all agree they had a great time.

          zackster the point is that the car crashed itself when the driver expected it to be using auto assist.

          "Teslarati reports that the driver “was using a ‘driver-assist’ feature and a ‘trimmed’ version of Autopilot,” so this likely limited the Model 3 semi-autonomous abilities to lane-keeping and little else"

          So it was a limited, semi-autonomous assistance feature which would have still required the driver to be paying attention behind the wheel - nowhere near a fully fledged autopilot which would have made the car “crash itself”.

          The vid is also 3 years old, with the tech being updated all the time.

            Oh yeah, fantastic. I often find myself thinking “what if Nintendo64 made a car that constantly needed firmware updates, crashed itself, and exploded?”

            Lol! Yeah, those self caused crashes are sooo 2019.

              For all the stick zack likes to give about people supposedly being “Elon stans” he isn’t half obsessed with the bloke.

              Elon properly lives rent-free in zack’s head.

              Lol at the Mills jibes! Touché!
