“Tesla Autopilot crash numbers are far higher than those of similar driver-assistance systems from GM and Ford. To be comparable with Ford’s rate, Tesla ought to have a NHTSA-reported crash total of 70 since last summer. Instead Tesla reported 516 crashes.”https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2022-12-27/tesla-stopped-reporting-autopilot-safety-statistics-online
Tesla stopped reporting its Autopilot safety numbers online. Why?

Around the same time that Tesla stopped self-reporting Autopilot safety stats, its crash rates were soaring far higher than those of its competitors.

@owasow Tesla : "yea thats cause Fords aren't cool enough for people to want to fuck inside on camera for Tiktok likes"

@hammancheez @owasow I can believe that. Inattentiveness and complacency of a "Tesla driver" is rapidly becoming the automotive equivalent of "Florida Man".

Which begs the question: how much is this due to the software and degraded sensor package (now only optical), and how much is users insistence on using self-driving features when they shouldn't?

Perhaps this is all part of his longtermist eugenics - literally drive a large part of the population off a cliff one day?

@enmodo @hammancheez @owasow HAHAHA man has no apex predators but himself? Hold my beer. <Thanos snap>
@kurtsh @hammancheez @owasow I'm holding so many beers now I'm over qualified for a job as an Oktoberfest waiter.
@enmodo @hammancheez @owasow Best. Post. Ever.
