I wonder how many points the crash cost him in the video game he was playing.

Driving is no time to be playing silly games.

I was driving on the interstate today, in a very hard rain with fog and lots of road spray. Visibility maybe 100ft.
Looked to my left and saw a guy in the next lane playing on a phone propped on the steering wheel. Scary. I wish I could have rapped on his hood with a 2 by 4 to snap him to attention.

Saw a YT video that showed an elderly Asian couple mouth-open sound asleep on a freeway in cali recently. I don’t get it.

It took 2 years to figure that out?

Yet he says drivers continue to use them without paying attention.

cars that "kind of" drive themselves are a prescription for disaster, as this wreck shows.

Grand Theft Auto?

sounds like his seatbelt didn’t work and the airbag didn’t deploy either.

Don’t most video games give you more than one life? He chose the game to play poorly.

Guess that’s why AI in automobiles is so critical for the younger generation.

"He says the board made recommendations to six automakers in 2017 to stop the problem and only Tesla has failed to respond."

What recommendations did they make and How did the others respond?

Pole Position?

I’ll admit to being ignorant of how these cars are supposed to work. Under what circumstances does the car drive itself, and when does the driver need to be ready to take over? It seems that if the car is just rolling along by itself without any problems, it would be natural for the driver’s attention eventually to lapse, or for the driver to seek diversions or to fall asleep. When the driver needs to take over, he isn’t engaged enough to react in time.

I like driving and prefer to do it myself.

If it was “Escape from Tarkov” I understand.

Stupidity has it’s rewards.

Why is Tesla or any other auto maker allowed to call driver assist “auto pilot”? It is in no way an auto pilot.

I for one am not going to be a beta tester when my life is at risk.

Geez, people are soooo stupid.

Since it was two years ago, could he still qualify for a Darwin Award?

I'll be interested to hear about how AI control handles a snowy day... Note that they do all their testing where it NEVER snows...
