Craig Doty II, a Tesla owner, narrowly avoided a collision after his vehicle, in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode, allegedly steered towards an oncoming train.
Nighttime dashcam footage from earlier this month in Ohio captured the harrowing scene: Doty’s Tesla rapidly approaching a train with no apparent deceleration. He insisted his Tesla was in Full Self-Driving mode when it barreled towards the train crossing without slowing down.
Did the owner not put their car in “Do not ram train” mode?
That’s an optional software upgrade. It’ll cost you $12.95 a month.
Oh come on, who wouldn’t pay for that? To not run into trains? That’s a bargain! Thanks Daddy Musk 🥰
And just think, the rest of us rubes have to manually not drive into trains, like barbarians
So sick of people referring to “Do not ram train” mode. You see it all over social media, but especially Lemmy. It’s “Do not ram train (Supervised)” mode, and you’d have to be living under a rock for the last 5+ years to think you don’t have to actually take control of the wheel to stop it from ramming a train.
