US transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg on Monday said human drivers must pay attention at all times after videos emerged of people wearing what appeared to be Apple’s recently released Vision Pro headset while driving Teslas.
Buttigieg responded on Twitter/X to a video that had more than 24m views of a Tesla driver who appeared to be gesturing with his hands to manipulate a virtual reality field.
Despite their names, Tesla’s assisted driving features – Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot and Full Self-Driving – do not mean the vehicles are fully autonomous, Buttigieg said Monday on social media.
“Reminder – ALL advanced driver assistance systems available today require the human driver to be in control and fully engaged in the driving task at all times,” Buttigieg said.
No motorist is innocent 🙂
They could also kill pedestrians
Point.
Actually they’re more likely to do that huh?
Damn. Just another reason to ban driving.
I meant pedestrian are innocent in this case and we let Darwin deal with them innocent pedestrians might die.
Yeah, and I meant we should ban driving. Motorists are the devil.
yeah but most people unfortunately just love to drive
I love your overall disdain for humanity, but your cherry-picking is disgusting. 😘
Ah yes, so the little baby in the car with no other choice isn’t innocent. You must subscribe to the IDF idea of how to draw the line….
Yeah it’s a shame all those food delivery trucks delivered most of the food you probably ever consumed
I have literally never gotten anything delivered.
I’m sure that’s true 🙄
But anyway, I was talking about all of the food that is delivered to grocery stores, restaurants, and anywhere else in society that wasn’t personally farmed or hunted by yourself. Almost every retail food seller of any kind has their stock delivered by trucks for the last mile at least.
Not to mention all of the various other tangible goods that are purchased for a typical modern life. Those are mostly delivered by trucks to the stores too.
The term “motorist” generally refers specifically to people who travel by car. Truckers are a different category.
That said! Society does not need to be structured in a way where everything is delivered by trucks and it’s actually extremely bad!
Sure keep moving those goalposts, that’ll do it
I don’t know what that means. Are you saying all drivers and passengers on the road deserve to die?
🤭
I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean.
It means queermunist is a rank piece of human garbage, basically.
God damn cringe overload is what it is…
