Obviously that guy is dumb enough to do this, he bought a cyber truck...

If you want a “self driving vehicle,” buy a horse.

As someone who gets both car sick and VR sick, this seems like my worst nightmare.

A lot of the people that drive these things are acting like children in adult bodies. I have seen some wildly dumb shit happen. It's like the car company created by the Darwin Awards...

I literally once saw someone eating on a little folding table/desk of some sort in their Tesla (driver seat, of course) with the dash screen playing some sort of media.

Another time, the person was playing a handheld gaming console of some sort, in the driver seat.

An the automatic lane switching doesn't adjust for people speeding up in the passing lane well. I've seen a couple near accidents there.

Stupidity. Stupidity never changes.

People have always been idiots behind the wheel. I started driving before personal electronics and touchscreens were a thing. You still saw people bracing books or newspapers against the steering wheel with their thumbs so they could read as they drove down the highway. Now it’s watching movies, texting or other social media, video conversations, reading…

Just seems that there are way more people doing it. The social contract gets more broken every day.

“Reminder – ALL advanced driver assistance systems available today require the human driver to be in control and fully engaged in the driving task at all times,” Buttigieg said.

This is not entirely true anymore. If you're in a 2024 Mercedes EQS Sedan driving in Nevada (Edit: or California) at less than 40 mph, you are allowed to take your hands off the wheel and your eyes off the road.

This is one of the things about assisted driving tech that's always confused me. It seems unlikely that we will have fully self-driving cars soon, but the illusion of being able to be absent while driving seems really dangerous. It doesn't seem like an improvement to me to remove the human element from most of the driving tasks while also requiring that human to spring into action seemingly at random.

Like don't get me wrong, people do dumb shit on the road with or without assistance, but having a system that requires human involvement at a zero-to-hero level seems like a bad system.

Then again, based on this actual content, maybe people just shouldn't be allowed to own vehicles full stop.

When HMD becomes permanently part of their face upon airbag deployment they might finally realize it was a bad idea.

It's like they're competing for being the most punchable.
