California Highway Patrol spokesman Daniel Jacowitz said that rescuers pulled the submerged car, a Tesla Model S, from the pond early Monday and found the man's body inside. The driver was identified as Keith Leung, 34, of Danville, California, said Sgt. Ray Kelly, spokesman of the Alameda County Sheriff's office.
Ban auto pilot? It’s not confirmed if it was AP. If you’re too fucking stupid to not pay attention to the road cause your car can drive itself, then you clearly don’t value your life in the first place. On the timeline of autonomous driving we are barely passing the start line and dipshits are out there thinking the code behind it is bomb proof. Let’s start a new trend, #NaturalSelection
People buying Tesla will not succeed in natural selection.
Dumb money has never had a more literal meaning
Bummer and that's terrible but why would we ban cars? More than 3k people die everyday in car accidents... we have clearly decided the reward is worth the risk.
Yes, 1 million people die in car accidents each year if you count car accidents outside the US 😉
Yep, 40,000 a year in the US. The world is larger than just the US though :)
Tesla should rebrand AP to pilot assist or the like. Then all the negative PR will disappear. Idiots will continue killing themselves regardless.
That won't sell cars to yuppies.
Organic shade-grown free range GMO-free gluten free pilot assist
Rebrand it to "Pilot Assisted Suicide"
Tesla should put out an update to disable autopilot, fix the issues, and re-enable when ready
The stock would fall to 0 right after and there would no longer be a Tesla
Any plans on banning human drivers because cause accidents too.
Humans cause accidents at a much, much lower rate per million miles driven.
Another Asian dieing by a Tesla...
Blue Teslas hate Asian guys. It's a fact.
They should ban Tesla when there are half the deaths of none AP cars, there are literally hundreds of deaths in non AP cars daily... But every Tesla accident is in the news.
Just ban Asian drivers.
#BanTeslaAP
The ban will start as soon as people start grabbing pitchforks. Here's one for you OP: ---E
