A Tesla was in its self-driving mode when it crashed into a parked patrol vehicle responding to a fatal crash in Orange County Thursday morning, police said.
The officer was on traffic control duty blocking Orangethorpe Avenue in Fullerton for an investigation into a suspected DUI crash that left a motorcyclist dead around 9 p.m. Wednesday when his vehicle was struck.
A Fullerton Police Department spokesperson said the officer was standing outside his vehicle around midnight when he saw a Tesla driving in his direction and not slowing down.
You seem to have missed the simple fact that there are cars produced prior to that. And the fact that the hardware announced there also wasn’t enough on its own. There were additional changes in 2019 to a newer computer necessary for FSD. My 2018 Model 3 has that hardware, but I cannot get FSD without a computer upgrade. Not to mention even older vehicles that can’t even accept the new computer hardware.
So yeah, not ALL Teslas in the road are capable of FSD.
Dude, talk about missing the point. I wasn’t the one who claimed all Teslas after 2016 were capable of Autopilot. ELON MUSK made that claim… you aren’t saying I’m Elon, right, because that’s pretty insulting.
Elon made the claim. He called his product Autopilot and then Full Self Driving. He got up on stage and released videos claiming the cars could drive hundreds of miles without an intervention. He released faked videos. He’s truly a con man for the ages.
