    As one of the replies said:

    But your concern isn’t for the lives of third parties that You and FSD endangered.

    Stuff like this is why I want cars to be banned. People driving cars are often incosiderate psychopaths and the bigger the car the higher the likelihood becomes.

    I did nothing to stop my new $80K+ vehicle from totalling itself. How can others learn from my mistake?

    Idk maybe just by…driving?

    It is easy to get complacent now - don’t.

    Remember to pay attention while in control of a 4 ton fucking vehicle.

    aaaa

    A previous tweet from a couple weeks ago.

    Sometimes I decide to go somewhere and turn on @Tesla FSD and then I forget where I decided to go and then it starts turning into Taco Bell or whatever and I’m like wtf is it doing and then I’m like oh right Taco BeLL

    Clearly s big brain operator here. Can’t remember where he wants to go and just let’s the truck just do whatever lol. Ohhhh I need taco bell but that thought is too big to hold in my head better fuckin get in my truck before I forget.

    Anyway still love the truck

      how many years before we get cars with unskippable ads in them that automatically reroute your self-driving to burger king instead of taco bell if you don’t click to opt-out?

          The jeep one is getting media attention but I’ve been in a newer Subaru that will beg you to subscribe to satellite radio if you’re not already and that was like last year. ads in cars are apparently a thing across some manufacturers already

    data-laughing

    I have family that lives around there, and have driven that road many times when visiting. The road is totally straight, unobstructed, and not at all confusing. The car just plowed off the street for no reason. There’s nothing complicated going on.

      Just last week I saw a driver plow into a divider on a straight and level road with almost no other cars around because they were on their phone. Seems like the Hitlermobile is learning from the cream of the crop.

    this is in the pantheon of car drivers acting like their potentially insanely deadly fuck ups are like a bit of an oopsie

    Hey there friendos, just realized if you flick your AR15 to fully auto that mag only takes 3 seconds to be empty! I was 20 rounds in when my shock at the accidental discharge wore off and I let go of the trigger. Obviously my fault, but learn from my mistakes!

    Except somehow that’s less stupid because you didn’t trust the full-self-operating mechanism that is not, in fact, full-self-operating, to decide not to magdump it’s shit infront of an elementary school

    not the point but that fucking road is a 45mph zone (except when they activate the flashing beacons then everyone’s going to magically listen to the signs and slow down to 15mph)

    america is a fucked up place

    and the pole he hit is literally the stoplight on the bumpout for kids from the school to cross the street. because of course reducing the crossing distance from 90ft to 70ft solves that problem, nobody would ever speed down a shared center turn lane to bypass traffic
