NHTSA - Still asleep at the wheel.
I love the fact that they've spent time developing this and it's illegal everywhere!
I almost got rear ended by a dickwad in a tesla who was most likely on his phone. This doesnt inspire confidence. Fuck this asshole.
did u know ford lets u drive 100mph in a school zone smh get those death traps off the road
I gladly change lanes if there’s a Tesla in front or behind me
Nah musk stole their wheel and tried to replace it with the stupid yoke
Can I now get sh!tfaced and let the car drive me home from the pub without getting in trouble with the cops? (Disclaimer I am currently sh!tfaced , but instead of FSD I bought a house within staggering distance from my house. )
So what, Mad Max (speeding and aggressive driving)is illegal in all states.
It will take one of the board members kids being struck and killed by a Tesla on FSD for that to change. Until then they turn a blind eye likely partly thanks to Elon’s large “donation” of $250M to Trump admin.
I am glad your house is within staggering distance of your house.
I mean can we all be honest here.. you “can” text and drive in every single car on the road. It’s amusing how some are acting like this is crazy.
All states, right? I remember Arizona was the last to ban it cause they’re hilarious
Every house is like that, … except maybe a tree-house
Good thing you got a house within staggering distance to your house. Wouldn't want you to get lost going from the kitchen to the bathroom
Yeah they adjust on their phones. It'll just make them more brazen.
Drunkenness checks out. I also like having my house close to my house.
Lol - I did say I was sh!tfaced.... I did meant pub to house obvs 🤣 (Going to leave that in for the record - just in case I get so p!ssed and died getting giddy ordering a Robotaxi 50 meters to experience the utopia that is Tesla FSD while experiencing a firey death)
Most cars can go 130 mph. Doesn’t mean you should do it. But if ever made legal then you can.
I hope your house is not like mine. Takes me 10 minutes to walk to the bar but 3 hours to get back home.
Just like the cars with no steering wheels?
He encouraged people to break the law.
You’re right. Musk should not be allowed to make such claims freely on social media without penalties or consequences
He’s foolish to say so, since it could encourage illegal driving practices.
I can already do this using CarPlay on my 7 year old car. It reads texts and I can use voice to reply. Oh wait, Tesla doesn’t support CarPlay.
Putin is absolutely getting his money's worth out of this fucker. Soon it'll be "Libs Assigned Mandatory Teslas, Licenses Not Required."
I don't need software or a Tesla to do this
I can’t wait until the say “Elon Musk said” is widely ridiculed and a financial death sentence
Felon Musk has never cared about the law.
If said dickwad had FSD on, he wouldn’t have almost rear ended you 🤷♂️
Teslas also read you texts and let you use voice to reply.
I guess he means to actually pick up a phone and "type" in the screen. Since I've been able to "text" while driving using android auto and it reads my texts and I can respond by voice.
Reading texts and responding with voice is built into the Tesla OS, it just needs a Bluetooth connection with a phone. Apparently people have some burning need to do it the more dangerous way. Emojis are hard to do with voice recognition I guess.
Would be nice if they just fixed the voice emojis. Sounds like a job for AI.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictions_on_cell_phone_use_while_driving_in_the_United_States Great news for the people of Montana. Now you can legally be killed with FSD.
>Can I now get sh!tfaced and let the car drive me home from the pub without getting in trouble with the cops? I already had an FSD user say on Reddit that he would absolutely let it drive him home if he was drunk. Which isn't really any different than the same person saying they're still sober enough to drive - because if anything goes wrong the results could be bad and he'd be liable.
Lmao i almost get hit daily by people in ice cars texting. This is not a tesla thing
Or paid off.
That is the real test of FSD. Until then it serves no purpose.
It doesn't mean some of us haven't gone that fast.
But you chose to knowing it was against a law. Same with texting.
How about people just NOT read texts and freaking drive?
Reckless moron.
Oh lord. He already created some accidents with his lies about FSD. This will make it worse!
It should be illegal in ALL states.
They will worth the holiday update. Oh and the current system reads texts too. FSD is awesome I use it everyday, it drives 99% of the time.
Even with some paint and a logo at the front, the Cybertruck still looks so dang ugly. What the heck did they think when coming up with that.
Am I reading it right? Many states allow it?
>But if ever made legal then you can. Autobahn has joined the chat.
> sh!tfaced You can say shitfaced on the internet
> If said dickwad had FSD on, he wouldn’t have almost rear ended you I often wonder at how people ignore the realities of FSD so much. Are you an ostrich in the rest of your life?
> instead of FSD I bought a house within staggering distance from my house Or you could just drink at home, like many other alcoholics.
Can you text on the autobahn while going 130?
Making a claim on social media is not the same as the company actually pushing a software update the allows drivers to break the law. He has been able to make all kinds of ridiculous claims on the Internet - the issue is this update (if true) is likely a violation of NTHSA standards and is enabling illegal behavior. If any other automaker did this it would be a huge controversy.
This dickhead hasn't killed enough people yet, he needs to up those numbers. Even after everyone he killed and is killing by gutting USAID, he's not in the top 5 mass murderers, so he's gonna just keep pushing
Ya you die it’s not mElons problem
At least he didn’t tack an e on the end of shit. I don’t know why that irritates me so much, but it does.
Why would anyone believe anything he says. Tell you what, Elon. You hop in a Tesla and make an hour trip letting your wonderful software drive while you text. Yeah, didn’t think so.
> […] which is illegal in most states Non-American here. How is it only illegal in most states?
NHTSA. R.I.P. Thanks to DOGE
Hmmm, I'm questioning so many life decisions at this point 🤣
>killed by a Tesla on FSD No worries, FSD disengaged two planck seconds before impact, so it's definitely driver error.
>I almost got rear ended That's an interesting was of saying you were not at all involved in an accident, but okay..
Isn't this a non-sequitur. At least pick another illegal vehicle operation that involves not looking at where you are going.
Anything to boost sales
Drunk driving
He specifically bought the election to gut all the regulatory agencies. Then fucked off after no "waste" was found.
We have reviewed our own proprietary data regarding the incident and concluded we are not at fault.
Montana has no speed limit on highways during daylight. I assume this doesn't apply on stretches inside city limits but who knows.
but don't worry not having a physically linked steering mechanism is great. we have seen its greatness in the airplane industry for ages! /s /s /s several major air plane incidents in civilian flights are linked to fly by wire. then again i am sure the company, that can't properly mount a gas pedal and design things to make it exactly get stuck in MAX SPEED knows how to create a steer by wire system, that lasts for 50 years at least right? without major failures right? /s /s there is of course also the option for a yoke with a mechanically linked steering, which as we know is also extremely dangerous, because the steering mechanism must require many turns to make tight turns, so that slight inputs at high speeds aren't dangerous. so now with a yoke it needs to still require several turns to steer at lower speeds, well at all speeds, but you mostly steer hard at lower speeds of course, but you CAN'T anymore, because there is no wheel to turn, so you can nicely grab emptiness instead :D very nice very smart let's go tesla! /s /s \_\_\_\_ just as some background the argument gets made for very big planes, that mechanically linked flight surfaces wouldn't matter with those giant planes anyways, as the forces are too big, i don't know the math, but trying to fight with a yoke after failure of the electronic systems, that make it easy to use before the failure is certainly preferred to trying to land a plane with 0 control about ANY flight control surfaces and only controlling the plane by controlling the engine power. also yes that exact case happened with flight 232, a great video on that: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=099cHWSbAL8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=099cHWSbAL8)
a strong argument should be made, that a car should ABSOLUTELY NOT spy on the driver. and a driver attention system can be put in, that does not spy on the driver btw with 0 network connections or storage if you're wondering. if it has storage, then that becomes a fundamental privacy issue instead. if the choice is between a SPYING camera in the car, that checks if you use a phone or not and NO camera, that spies on you and thus no tracking of whether or not you pay attention, the 2. option is prefered, because privacy is WAY more crucial. however that choice isn't needed, because again we have systems, that check driver attention without spying on the users. just to be clear the car companies ABSOLUTELY want to spy on everything you do and they sell tons of data. keeping all this context in mind is important. as tesla DOES spy on everything you do. and now elmo is talking about spying on people and letting people use a phone while driving the child murdering death machines in its fake "self driving" mode. so this is complete and absolute insanity, but please don't forget the privacy argument of not tracking drivers.
Yeah Elon and I did the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs (units of distance btw). I am also strong in the force. Untrained but stronger than I know.
Witness me! \*proceeds to burst into flames\*
On the road to autonomous driving with only cameras and without Radar, LiDAR or ultrasonic sensors, many will die. Elon Musk is willing to make that sacrifice while being chauffeured around by humans.
He's beta testing software on unsuspecting drivers and everyone else on the roads.
