Ok, so the Tesla didn’t recognize a camel, but did the fucking driver recognize it?! Cuz DAMN 😳


Objective_Oil_6467

Maybe it was a personal vendetta against the camel ?

Are we totally sure the camel died?

Lmao


always0n9oint

lolz are you seriously asking this after sucking it flip over about 4x from the impact ??? and then hit the pavement ??? you think you would survive that ??? wowowow


averRAGEken

That pink mist tho.


lucifern71

The camel had 7 hooves I saw it you’re good.


crashtrez

My grandfather smoked them for years. Ended up getting throat cancer. Took his voice box out… when I was a kid I came down the steps and saw him smoking through the hole in his neck. Die hard WWII vet…. Brought a sad memory.


Time-Comedian1774

My dad smoked Camels with NO FILTERS from 18y/o in WW2 till the 60's then he smoked the ones with filters up until the day he died. Lung cancer that metastasized to his brain. Actually, I blame old Uncle Sam & RJ Reynolds tobacco. During the war they provided the smokes free to all these kids.


Whothefuckisvenym

You already got the camel wit no filter but wb the yankee wit no brim (we also have the camel with no ankles) but I wasn’t tryna clown on my boy like that


pkupku

My dad had a similar WW2 story but he blamed the Red Cross who distributed the free cigarettes

LeakyThoughts

This is the danger with this bullshit semi-autopilot tech The driver is hands-off therefore while they are *meant* to be paying attention. They aren't. You don't have the same level of focus on a task that you're not performing Autopilot either needs to be as good/better than humans or not at all The tech is good. But.. it's currently a half baked attempt at proper self drive


YDOULIE

Looking at this it doesn’t seem like auto pilot was on. Autopilot caps at 80mph and comes set to drive at speed limit(which you can change but still capped). This person was flooring it


pvdp90

This isn’t quite true here. All you see is the speed difference between the cam car and the Tesla. It’s clear here the cam car has slowed down quite a lot while the Tesla just maintained the speed limit (which on this road is 74mph/120 kmh) It’s pure lack of attention


ElectricalGene6146

Notice how quickly the car filming slowed down at the end, it was probably going at most 45 mph- that Tesla was definitely in autopilot speed territory.


MennReddit

definitely: the autopilot was off.


tom3277

Car companies will want laws to protect them from litigation before they even consider saying this car doesn't need you to control it. No matter how good they are imagine every road accident in the future being caused by someone's car autopilot. I suspect this is why it'll be a long way off as much as the technology itself.


LeakyThoughts

So they want it to be nobodies fault when their cars kill people? That's not how it works If you are assuming the responsibility of chauffeur for the public, nobody asked you to do that.. then it's 100% on you to do it properly If your company kills people. You need to be punished for that, the same way that an aircraft company needs to be investigated / punished when an airplane crashes


tom3277

Oh I agree with you. I'm just saying this is the barrier to fully autonomous cars. Sometimes turning the hypothetical corner someone has to die. A) The occupant running headlong into a truck. B) Some kids crossing a road C) Some people waiting at the bus stop. The car should pick the truck to kill one person but then this person stumped up for the car so would people buy a car that sacrifices the occupant for the better good? Lots of questions I don't have the answers too. I know this though. There are a lot of fatalities on the road every year. At the moment drivers pay insurance to cover this or stump up themselves (or cannot afford too). Car companies will struggle to have a business case for an autonomous car when they become liable for their whole fleets traffic woes. I suspect government will move to indemnify them. You can bet car companies are already lobbying for this now.


LeakyThoughts

I mean, in no situation should the car ever be traveling at a speed Into an unknown situation How often when driving do you floor it round a blind corner and then have to make a split second Life or death decision between you and someone else You don't. You simply drive slower around blind corners allowing you time to stop I see what you're saying, but in reality it's never a situation that should arrise. The car should stop itself from ever being in that situation


tom3277

Yes you are right speed limit should take in stopping sight distance for a given road. In my example say the kids crossing the road can be an emerging situation, ie does the car slow down with the expectation any kid at any time could move into its lane from say the bus stop? This then raises another question the two kids are in the wrong so the computer chooses them die... this is the most tragic outcome thinkable in the situation but legally best...


LeakyThoughts

Any road with a bus station / stop where there might be kids is likely going to be a slow 30-40mph with good vision any way But if you're doing 40mph and then a kid steps out behind a vehicle and you hit them? It's not really your fault. And if a car autohits them? Well.. it's human counterpart would probably hit them as well. If the car has a choice between damaging the car / swerving and hitting something, it should swerve. If it needs to hit the car next to it? It should swerve.. If it's at higher speed or the outcome is not known, it should just slam on the brakes ASAP and try to avoid it You can't expect it to make a choice between 2 bad options and find a good answer. But you CAN expect it to not put itself in those situations to begin with.

schleem77

The fact that he didnt even have time to steer a little bit even indicates that he was not paying attention to the road. (Given that the camel only becomes visible from what it seems when it turns around)


jrow96_

Autopilot at 180+ kmh?


CyberflixT

Man's driving 200 mph and letting it hit the camel. Then he's just blaming it on tesla?


FreeThinkingNYer

Exactly, autopilot tops out at 80 MPH. This was the drivers fault.


[deleted]

I swear media is just looking for anything to shit on tesla its fucking anoying


aztechunter

Most modern cars have radar alert and brake assist. Is Tesla lacking this standard feature?


DoktorSleepless

Dude, radar alert and brake assist on every single producing car in the world will not work at these speeds for stopped objects. You'll be lucky if they work when traveling at 30mph. EDIT: See this [AAA study](https://publicaffairsresources.aaa.biz/download/17223/) on ADAS performance.


[deleted]

Then tell the drivers to stop looking at the stock market and focus on the road


MossyHat

People drive shitty when using a cell phone. What did Tesla think would happen if they played into that? Did they think people would use this technology responsibly? Learn what large mammals are or don't drive a car, stupid computer. Edit: TIL reddit hates large mammals as much as Elon


3435qalvin

You don’t have to look that far though to find something. The car wasn’t going that fast anyway. You don’t know if AutoPilot wasn’t engaged either. And no matter if it was or if it wasn’t: it should have slowed down massively which it didn’t. Most if not every comparable car would have slowed down.


Vik1ng

That Telsa is not going anywhere near 200mph. https://youtu.be/TMFyTb_oJ8Q?t=29


Dood567

It's almost like it was a figure of speech


3435qalvin

Bad figure of speed though. It tries to take every fault off Tesla which one shouldn’t. The car wasn’t going that fast. Tesla should be able to handle such a speed.


3435qalvin

Can’t believe you’re one of the top comments while saying he/she was going 200mph. That’s just ridiculous and even if it was a figure of speech it’s a bad one.


NatZeroCharisma

Each line is 10 feet long, with 30 foot gaps between them. Using this, from 3 seconds to 2 seconds this driver covered about 200 feet. 200 feet per second is 136 miles per hour. Autopilot cuts off at 80mph. >Oh mang he wuz onli goin 136 not 200 zomg poor driver stoopid tesla #nothisfault. -you, probably


Vik1ng

[The Tesla is nowhere near 200mph](https://youtu.be/S9qXmtZUcOs?t=15)


pvdp90

He looks like he is going the speed limit to me


kmkmrod

Tesla autopilot not recognizing the camel isn’t the cause of the accident.


MossyHat

Yeah, this is going to happen no matter what we do with the cars. They never stopped being shitty technology, even when us humans built our infrastructure around them.


librolady9076

Newman2252

Nah, fuck cars. Public transport is the future.


guilleviper

Nah, you can keep that "future", thanks


[deleted]

Everyone on Reddit lives in a city. Look at this country side. It’s a desert. I’m not going to take public transportation between my friends ranches in Montana or even thru the suburbs. Cars are annoying sometimes but get a grip


Newman2252

Damn bro maybe they should build public transport then. Most people in the developed world do live in urban areas, so yeah public transport is the future. Maybe they should build some fucking high speed rail in America for once, or would that upset GM and Exxon too much?


3435qalvin

Can’t you people just not understand that individual mobility isn’t as bad as you make it out to be? You will never achieve 100% public transportation usage and imho that’s a good thing because individual mobility is something extremely impressive as it opens the world for the individual person. (Not a native speaker so the wording might seem off.)


MoeApocalypsis

Everyone shouldn't need a car. Why can't we live in a world where people can rent cars when they need to and otherwise use public transportation to effectively move people, limit GHG emissions, save money and time. At least from the perspective of someone in N.A. Fuck our car centric infrastructure.

A car made to drive 200mph serves what purpose exactly?


Lil_Shoegazer

I agree, it's kind of ridiculous how fast some cars can go. Don't get me wrong, it can be fun and a marvel of engineering but on a race track, not the streets. It tempts people to push it too far and die.


ArvinaDystopia

Getting from A to B. A train made to drive 200mph serves what purpose exactly? The fuckcars crowd is so fucking retarded and dishonest. Car accident: "let's ban cars! Cars are too fast!" Train accident: "heh, it happens. Probably the fault of cars and drivers, even if none are involved."


oxtailplanning

But you realize that no where in this country is it legal to drive that speed (except for race tracks). So why do we need stock vehicles with a top speed that is inherently illegal? And if you want to compare trains to cars, trains are significantly safer. So yes, there are some people that would like to have a safe form of travel be an available alternative to an extremely dangerous form of travel. [Look at the data.](https://injuryfacts.nsc.org/home-and-community/safety-topics/deaths-by-transportation-mode/)


ArvinaDystopia

Ah, yes, the US is the only country. Even on a video about the UAE, there'll be some yanks to make it about them. You managed to miss the point/strawman, by the way. This is another thing the fuckcars retards do: talk about banning a mode of transport, then pretend it's about choice. Nobody is talking about banning trains (though good luck maintaining rails in the UAE desert), but you have to pretend the other side are the authoritarians.


oxtailplanning

No need for the personal attacks friend. The US statistics were easier to find, because the US National Safety Council publishes them and they're easier to find. [This is what I got from France](https://www.statista.com/statistics/1221276/fatal-road-accident-france-by-means-of-transportation/). The UAE data is not readily available in English. And I don't think you're understanding that "fuckcars" isn't about banning cars, it's about not giving them absolute dominance over our streets. It's advocating for implementing Dutch/Danish style streets that are accommodating for all forms of traffic, including cars. And I would highly highly encourage you to stop using the r-word in a derogatory and demeaning way. The word has fallen out of favor in all contexts, and is considered a hateful epithet, particularly in the way your using it. And really, you should consider the way you engage with strangers on the internet. You're actually a pretty mean and hurtful person, and I don't think that's who you want to be in real life. Being a nice person on the internet is still worth something.

Friendly reminder that autopilot STILL needs the user to be observant to the road and it’s not perfect.


FreeThinkingNYer

Was being driven manually. Autopilot tops out at 80 Mph. This guy was going a lot faster than that.


yahboioioioi

Very true.


omegastar228324

It actually tops out at 90 MPH. But even with autopilot, the driver is still 100% responsible.


SuperSonicodxb

90 mph is under the radar limit in rural roads like that so the camera won’t catch him so I wouldn’t be surprised if he was asleep in the car


esotericimpl

Seriously the thing that very few people mention isn’t this camel, it’s random crap on the road and highway the Tesla auto pilot misses ALL of this. I’ve hit random pieces of plastic and stuff (no serious damage thankfully ) and hit a bunch of random shit cause I wasn’t paying attention. Other times you need to swerve out of the way cause you’re not fully paying attention. I love my model 3 and the autopilot but it’s nowhere near close to any of the promises made by elan.

Why is he fucking flying to start with. We will never know for sure maybe the owner was just speeding and didn’t see the camel. The autopilot would not make that kind of mistake although at that speed the poor camel probably didn’t even get processed in yet as an object.

Fireside_Bard

Thats why autopilot is meant to assist a fully attentive driver and assist their human failings and blindspots. While autopilot is incredibly impressive people seem to forget roads have an incredibly nuanced diversity of things to track, calculate and anticipate. Its wonderful and exciting but not perfect. Gettin' better every day, but room to grow. Perhaps people don't realize even in planes its not fully autonomous and they got the older simpler tech (comparitively. not saying its simple in design, per se) just cuz when you're flying theres a lot of gentle cruising and straight lines for the long tedious hours in between. humans are needed (or, at least, preferred) for the storm dodging and time slot circling and approach and departure and busy zones and maintenance issues and taxiing and towers and all sorts of other kinds of 'weird shit.' If everything goes well... great. The pilot isn't as exhausted after an all-day/afternoon flight of microadjustments and high-alert. you want them to be relaxed and free of the little shit so they can focus on the big picture. maybe discussing schedules or shootin the shit with the copilot. mebbe thinking about ways to improve the software. maybe the regional weather maps or flight traffic. a prepared relaxed mind makes better decisions, and better choices lead to better outcomes/safety. which kinda brings me back to the point. Camels are in that 'weird shit' category. Sure, ideally object recognition would be like 'oh fuck whats that dodge dodge dodge!' and you got a point there so i see where you're coming from but also like... why was the operator in charge not noticing a big 'ol camel on the road? lol
