They arrested the President of the United States of America 4X, charged him 91X, indicted him 4X, spied on his campaign, sabotaged his first term, jailed his supporters, raided his private residence, censored him, gagged him, tried to bankrupt him, and attempted to remove him from state ballots.

When all of that failed they tried to assassinate him not once but four times.

And they go on national television to talk about how we need to vote for them to save democracy.

@elonmusk Makes no sense. Tesla is the most expensive to insure in my state.

@wholemars @future_yas It looks like it was way too fast, approaching that curve. What's the point of FSD if she takes over and if the crash happens, you say it was not on FSD. If she did not disengage FSD, you will say, she should have taken over since it is supervised.

[Fred Lambert @FredLambert]

Tesla fans using the “4-second disengagement” as a gotcha are missing the forest for the trees. Yes, the driver was technically in control of the vehicle at the moment of impact. But she was in control because FSD was already failing by driving too fast ahead of this sharp turn — it was heading straight into a concrete barrier at highway speed with no sign of correcting.

Everyone who has frequently used FSD or Autopilot and paints this 4-second disengagement as a “gotcha” moment is being disengenous, and that includes Elon Musk.

I have tens of thousands of miles on FSD, and I’ve experienced the system coming too fast into a turn at least half a dozen times.

We’ve said this before and we’ll keep saying it: the problem with FSD isn’t what happens when the driver is paying attention and the system works. The problem is what happens when the system gives you every reason to trust it, and then suddenly doesn’t work. The driver has to recognize the failure, assess the situation, decide on a correction, and physically execute it, all in less time than the system needs to create the danger.

Musk and Tesla’s propagandists can point to the logs all they want. The video shows what actually matters: FSD approaching a standard highway curve at full speed with zero indication it was going to navigate it. That’s the failure. Everything that happened after, including the panicked disengagement, is a consequence of that failure.

The framing that this was “manual driving, not FSD” is technically true for the final 4 seconds and deeply dishonest about the full sequence of events. It’s exactly the kind of liability shell game that courts are increasingly rejecting, as that $243 million verdict makes clear. Tesla created the system, sold it as “Full Self-Driving,” and profits from the ambiguity. At some point, it has to own the consequences.

@JCChristopher @elonmusk You are not in a cybertruck?

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@TesCalendar1 Dodge Journey in the 2000s came with built in booster seat for kids. It won't be that hard to have built in carseats in these robotaxis. Everything else I completely agree. They need a full size SUV.

@kirillzzy @farzyness You are estimating the number of fraudulant votes without any proof just like the other side estimations. You are no different. Best path is to have voter id and stop this nonsense for good.

[Ethan @EZebroni]

Hey @elonmusk, can you make us a full size SUV?

I am trying to convince my wife to have a fourth kid.

A full-size SUV will fix the “four kids won’t fit in our Tesla” problem.

Help!

@LinkN01 It does work in light snow conditions like this. Sometimes it just limits your speed and there will be a warning on the screen something like, FSD severely degraded due to multiple cameras low visibility. It also turns off regen.

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@RelatableMemes6 @Laxix6 Its the otherway around. Brake lights indicate, you are slowing down, marker/position lamps indicate your position and hazards indicate you have stopped either in the middle of the road or on the side.

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@RelatableMemes6 @Laxix6 How will anyone know if you are stopped or moving?

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@RelatableMemes6 @Laxix6 When visibility is low, hazards indicate you are stopped. This causes more confusion than its necessary. Just have the position lamp on which is red and is better in low visibility.

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@DevinOlsenn @RealDanODowd @Tesla @elonmusk FSD is already at full braking. I think you applied brakes right after. So it looks like it would have stopped. It may have also been trying to avoid being rear ended.

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@XFreeze Isn't this a bad idea? By the time it hits the ground, the Airbag would have deflated. No protection.

@Gorga469 @FloreFlos @atensnut Well well well how the turn tables.

@Tesla Filling one middle lane at a time.

@ZarghunaYam @XH_Lee23 Hong kong?

[Philtroit @Philtroit]

@niccruzpatane They still manage better fit and finish than @Tesla is amazing.
