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.

You seem really invested in making sure Teslas are off the road, but not at all interested in regulation that would keep all dangerous autonomous vehicles off the road. So... do you work for BMW, or Waymo?

    Tesla vehicles are specifically singled out, because as far as I know, they are the only autonomous vehicle that uses cameras instead of Lidar.

    And the Tesla company has a habit of cover ups, falsifying or manipulating crash data, and fraud.

    I don't trust any autonomous car on public roads, but some are considerably more trustworthy than Teslas.

    FWIW, you can buy robot vacuums for your home with more advanced object detection than a robotaxi. 🫤
