Think about it: ultra modern, high tech automobile, forced to drive around that third world sh!thole of a country - probably suicide.

A man killed in a crash last year while using the semi-autonomous driving system on his Tesla Model S sedan kept his hands off the wheel for extended periods of time despite repeated automated warnings not to do so, a U.S. government report said on Monday
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released 500 pages...

Why are they standing on the car when they are right next to shore?
Makes for a better photo.

I know about that one, he was watching a movie (must have been a good movie!).

I wonder how many Tesla passengers think of the car as the “Designated Driver”?

I have not been to China in years, but some parts were nice.
Mostly felt safe, unsafe because of our driver and other drivers.
You can drive around Chicago or NYC or LA or...

I guarantee, if you make a couple of passes through the sh!tholes, you see a surprising number of ultra modern, high tech automobiles.

But remember it’s not just the throttle pedal that can control the speed on a modern car, things like Adaptive Cruise Control and Auto-Pilot also send throttle messages to the control systems.
This could be quite complex and I expect to see more issues like this. ...and they’re connected to the internet.

Well, someone had to program the autopilot. His company, and his programmers, need I say more.

Lots of folks tried to ride the “sudden acceleration” coattails some time back....”Honest officer, the gas pedal stuck and the brakes didn’t work...”

True. Inexpensive Chinese built guitars have increased in quality a lot in recent years for example.

Don’t forget Jerry and the swimming pool.

“I think insolvency will solve that next quarter.”
For years now people on this forum have been saying that Tesla is about to collapse.
Never heard any of them predict GM was about to collapse, but it did.

His driver made a legitimate wrong turn. Not sure what the big deal was.
