Driverless Tesla Car crashes killing two

I can offer some insight on how to deal with LiPo battery fires.

In the radio control hobby, its recommended to keep a 5 gallon bucket or large clay plant pot half filled with sand with another bucket of sand next to it. If you get a bad battery pack or screw something up while soldering; you gotta toss the thing into the half full bucket or plant pot and dump sand on top. Only way to deal with it safely and not cause damage to anything else.

A non-gas fireplace or firepit works too, in a pinch.

 

Two guys out for a night of hard partying. Too drunk to drive home. One guy wants to call an Uber. Other guy says," I got a car that will drive us home, we don't need no Uber".

Why is it a Darwin winner for expecting a product to do what's it's advertised to do?

 

and i watch with trepidation as many want driverless trucks on the roads......

what could possibly go wrong..???

 

Let's be honest sooner a later it would happen cause 99 out of 100 Tesla owners reading Musk Tweeter account where he always say how great Tesla autopilot is, and soon it will be completely able to drive itself.
BUT.
here never mentioned small print where you suppose to have your hands on steering wheel all the time, and Tesla have 0 responsibility for car autopilot actions

 

But never fear, driverless trucks are right around the corner.

 

2025. I was always typing about 2025.
And I still believe it's possible especially along Southern states in LTL fleet where 1 guy leading the pack of trucks with autonomous feature, something like a train but not directly connected and on a regular road

 

Yeah, that's called the slightest amount of foresight and a small amount of understanding of human nature.

 

Uh huh, how long has Musk had his "autopilot" out? How many times a year do you hear this sort of thing happen? It'd be much more efficient and safer to just hook 3 or 4 trailers up to one truck and road train it like the Aussies, just my opinion though.
