Because Tesla’s safety features apparently make it so that you can get away with driving drunk. Dude was obviously drinking a beer and everything. They told him they could tell he was drinking, to warn him because while they weren’t going to narc on him, someone definitely will, and he just sort of absentmindedly smiled.
What’s the answer then to stopping drunk drivers killing people. Which happens daily. Telling them not to do it doesn’t work, What’s our next line of defense?
Driving a Tesla apparently.
Do Tesla’s not have one of the highest accident rates of all self-driving vehicles?
Disclaimer I don’t know if that’s true, I feel like I’ve read it elsewhere on Lemmy, though I never verified it.
The news story was regarding people getting insurance quotes, the group pf people the story was about have either owned a Tesla or were getting a new quote on a new/existing Tesla. It would make sense that people who drive like shit would want driver assist technology.
