    That’s like hoping to catch a train that already left the station.
    Many people have already died in so many ridiculous ways, you wouldn’t be able to make it up.
    Like drowning because you cant open the door! Or buning to death because you can’t open the door.
    Because Tesla stupidly decided to hide the handle, to open the door manually, behind a panel.
    There are also stories of Tesla FSD driving head on without even slowing down into things like large trucks, because they had some clearance under them, but far from enough, so people got decapitated!

    But apart from insanely stupid FSD and design flaws there is also this more general picture:

      Melon Usk doomed their FSD efforts from the start with his dunning-kruger-brain take of “humans drive just using their eyes, so cars shouldn’t need any sensors besides cameras.”

      Considering how many excellent engineers there are (or were, at least) at his companies, it’s kind of fascinating how “stupid at the top” is just as bad, if not worse, than “stupid all the way down.”
