Wrong acronym
The $TSLAQ world is full of an NTSB report on a fatal crash in Florida. The scenario might have been unavoidably fatal anyway, but here's the important part:
Instead of stomping, this driver TURNED ON THE AUTOPILOT AND SHUT OFF HIS OWN SENSES. That's the problem. He willingly surrendered his survival to a complicated badly-coded system that CANNOT WORK AT ALL. FULL SELF-DRIVING IS PERMANENTLY PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE. iT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. If you think it's possible, you're a murderous monster who needs to be removed from the genepool. Fortunately the system does AUTOMATICALLY achieve this goal.
ADAS supposedly stands for Automatic Driver Assistance System.
ADAS really stands for Automatic Darwin Award Selector.
The $TSLAQ world is full of an NTSB report on a fatal crash in Florida. The scenario might have been unavoidably fatal anyway, but here's the important part:
Preliminary data from the vehicle show that the Tesla’s Autopilot system — an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) that provides both longitudinal and lateral control over vehicle motion — was active at the time of the crash. The driver engaged the Autopilot about 10 seconds before the collision. From less than 8 seconds before the crash to the time of impact, the vehicle did not detect the driver’s hands on the steering wheel. Preliminary vehicle data show that the Tesla was traveling about 68 mph when it struck the semitrailer. Neither the preliminary data nor the videos indicate that the driver or the ADAS executed evasive maneuvers.In other words, the driver SAW the truck at least 10 seconds before the collision. A human driver would stomp on the brakes and try to steer left or right, preferably heading for the bushes on the right. The idealized stopping time from 70 MPH seems to be about 5 seconds, so a stop or a controlled ditching should have been possible.
