Tesla Model S waffling - Page 163

Does auto-pilot detect the edges of the lane by following the painted lines? I'd have to think so. The yellow line on the left side of the lane directed the car straight into the barrier.

I love how defensive of the tesla driver some of the people are in that thread. Yikes.

Exactly !! This car is supposed to be on auto pilot and drive itself yet a real world situation happens and the car crashes and it's the drivers fault

oh right this is a beta program ...

Sorry but it is crazy that a manufacturer uses its customers to 'beta test' a product that actually can result in an accident.

All time high--here comes a major short squeeze. Quite a run since December.

My neighbor, who normally drives a blue S85, came home with this the other day, presumably as a service loaner.

It's my old car.

How do I know? They didn't take the Great Lakes sticker off the hatch. Or the parking sticker off the bumper.

Equal parts funny and creepy.

That's awesome. Have you mentioned it?

When I sold my 69 Corvette in San Diego in the mid 90s, it through a consignment dealer. A couple weeks later, I saw it parked on the street less than half a block from my apartment building. I saw it parked there again a few days later and that was the last I ever saw it.

It was a really weird feeling.

What are the odds of that?
