Workmate of mine is a Tesla Model 3 owner. Loves the company, loves the Musk story, serious tech head. I periodically keep up with him on the Autopilot advancements. 2 years ago, he said the Autopilot easily gave up on driving when the conditions were poor weather + road under construction. Those conditions challenge even good and heavily experienced drivers.
A concern I have is further babying our youngins, letting their fancy new EVs drive for them mostly, until the conditions worsen where the car just gives up and asks the human driver to take over. The human may be worse than the machine in some instances.
Just can't wait for this to "improve life". "Hey Dad, I was going to come over and see you, but the car didn't like the snow."
Lol. |
I also had a coworker that owned a model 3. He used the auto drive feature to fetch his car from its parking spot once and it drove straight into a small ditch. I am not making this up. The group decided that the camera system detected snow as a barrier and drove in the opposite direction. Not good.
