I'd bet China offered them slave labor at the factory and vw just couldn't say no

OK. Who's going to carry the food to the door?

No. They shouldn't get a refund because ethey know what they were getting.

Tesla FSD - Full Self-Deception

Given they drive on the left side of the road, will the AI use British cars or American cars but permanently in reverse?

Neat! I think London streets being older, narrower, and left-hand traffic will present some unique challenges compared to US cities.

China not bad. Chinese government bad. Not for EVs and AVs, but for other reasons.

Also, this is Singapore.

But appearnently China bad.

“Since there was no human driver, a ticket couldn’t be issued (our citation books don’t have a box for “robot”),” reads the post.

Wait, what?

Last year, California governor Gavin Newsom signed into law a bill that allows police officers to issue a “notice of noncompliance” if a driverless car breaks traffic laws. The law goes into effect in July 2026. The law also requires companies to set up an emergency phone line for first responders.

Ah, legislation lags behind technology once again...

To bad it was not as simple as a paraplegic and a blind man in the car. I mean how do you even use your night stick in this situation???

The car doesn't feel, so I won't help the cops to get it up, when they get home.

Come on... Give the ticket to the CEO of the company that put the car on the road.

JFC, you're Cops.

Beat the shit out of it.

Edit: Alternatively, just smash out a tail light, and impound it for being unroadworthy, and squeeze a few bucks out of the owner to get their car back, as one does.

Second Edit: No citizen would report you.

Coming soon, "Policed stumped after trying to ticket a driverless car for running over a child. 'Who's to blame here? We can't arrest a car.' ~ Some cop who knows their job is to protect the interests of corporations and billionaires."

Ooh, Europe! We haven't seen that many tests there, yet.

This will be interesting. Current autonomous system still struggle with snowy lanes.

Baidu is scaling quickly. I wish we knew how the rate of "interventons per 1000 km" compares.

Is NYC the "final boss" of north american driving? If not, which city is?

This is super interesting.

NYC is more complex driving. It will be interesting to see how quickly they master it.

Alternate headline: Alphabet Agency mobile spy car unit loosed on NYC streets.

Beijing’s complex night-time road conditions, characterized by low lighting, environmental interference – heavy rain in the summer and snow in the winter – pose significant challenges for autonomous driving systems.

People often question Level 4 self-driving and snowy conditions, it will be interesting to see how this goes.

Oopsie! That seems suboptimal. Glad the passenger wasn't hurt.

I am SHOCKED the K-Hole in Chief might lie about something.

The complaint alleges that Tesla and its executives made materially false and misleading statements, inflating the company’s stock price by exaggerating the readiness and safety of self-driving vehicles, particularly the Robotaxi.
