    Love it haha. I don’t care about Tesla at all, but including the share of miles driven on Autopilot versus other companies’ tech would be much more revealing. If 90% of miles driven were on Autopilot, they would be outperforming their competitors.

      How does that make it any more “right” that they’re testing on public roads?

      Will you bend over for Elon when one of his “tests” ram a minivan on a highway killing a family of 5?

      “Oh but this was one accident out of 5000 test miles driven”

        I am not defending him, just saying it’s wrong to use misleading stats even with a good point.

          You’re being pedantic then. The issue is not the stats because the fundamental is they should not be beta testing this on public roads. Have you signed any waivers if one kills you or maims you? I know I haven’t.

            You should go to another part of the comments, then, because over here we were discussing the application of the statistic.

              It is relevant when your talking about the application of statistics when the statistics don’t matter because there should be 0 km tested on public roads without everyone signed on.

              I understand what you’re saying. I’m telling you you’re wrong as is everyone else. The only statistic that should matter in this scenario is 0. Hence you’re being pedantic and hiding behind “hurr durr this is how you do statistics”.

              Anyways, I’ve made my point. You bicker with others around breakdowns on highway vs construction vs city traffic and miles driven.

                It’s just that what you’re saying is meaningless. There is no way to test things fully until you deploy them. If they did their best in private lots then said it is out of testing, then got in accidents, you would be saying they never tested functionality in the real world.

                I mostly disagree with their pitch to the public and marketing. It should have been pitched as advanced cruise, the way many cars have. I think it has misled buyers into being entirely too trusting of the Autopilot for its current abilities.
