Tesla Using 'Full Self-Driving' Hits Deer Without Slowing, Doesn't Stop

How's that computer-vision-only approach working out for you, Tesla?

OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

How many kids is Elon going to kill before we shut him down? Whats the number of children we’re going to allow Elon to murder every year?

    I notice nobody has commented on the fact that the driver should’ve reacted to the deer. It’s not Tesla’s responsibility to emergency brake, even if that is a feature in the system. Drivers are responsible for their vehicle’s movements at the end of the day.

      Then it’s not “Full self driving”. It’s at best lane assistance, but I wouldn’t trust that either.

      Elon needs to shut the fuck up about self driving and maybe issue a full recall, because he’s going to get people killed.

      That would be lovely if it wasn’t called and marketed as Full Self-Driving.

      You sell vaporware/incomplete functionality software and release it into the wild, then you are responsible for all the chaos it brings.

      True but if Tesla keeps acting like they’re on the verge of an unsupervised, steering wheel-free system…this is more evidence that they’re not. I doubt we’ll see a cybercab with no controls for the next 10 years if the current tech is still ignoring large, highly predictable objects in the road.
