People are well known for never ever running over anything or anyone.

self driving cars should absolutely be banned from public roads.

Whats the number of children we’re going to allow Elon to murder every year?

What's the number of adults?

its just a deer

Deer are people too...

I know a lot of people here are/will be mad at Musk simply for personal political disagreement, but even just putting that aside, I've never liked the idea of self-driving cars. There's just too much that can go wrong too easily, and in a 1-ton piece of metal and glass moving at speeds up to near 100 mph, you need to be able to have the control enough to respond within a few seconds if the unexpected happens, like a deer jumping in the middle of the road. Computers don't, and may never, have the benefit of contextual awareness to make the right decision as often as a human would in those situations. I'm not going to cheer for the downfall of Musk or Tesla as a whole, but they do severely need to reconsider this idea or else there will be a lot of people hurt and/or killed and a lot of liability on them when it happens. That's a lot of risk to take on for a smaller auto maker like them, just thinking in business terms.

I thought the deer would be running or something, but no its just straight on from the car, doesn't move at all! How the fuck does a deer standing dead center in front of you not get caught by the camera!
