Tesla was informed in August 2022 that it would run down children in the road [1].
Tesla was informed in November 2022 that it would ignore “Do Not Enter” and “Road Closed” signs [2].
Tesla was informed in November 2022 that it would ignore school bus stop signs [3].
Tesla was subsequently informed in November 2022 it would still run down children in the road [4].
Tesla was subsequently informed in February 2023 that it would still do all of these things [5].
In March 2023 a North Carolina student exiting a school bus with the stop sign extended was hit by a Tesla in ADAS mode [6]. ADAS mode usage was confirmed by Tesla in the NHTSA SGO database labeled ID 13781-5100 [7].
These safety defects continue to be present as noted in July 2023 [8].
They continue to be present along with critical deficiencies in the Tesla DMS system as noted in August 2023 [9].
FSD is critically deficient and has seen no meaningful improvement in critical showstopping deficiencies for months. Some of which have caused demonstrable avoidable harm. This is unacceptable for a safety-critical product.
Great, quote the Dawn Project. You know that's a failing autopilot competitor that's faking videos. Look it up on YouTube, there's analysis videos showing that the Dawn Project is lying.
They do not make an Autopilot competitor. Lie number 1.
They did not fake the videos.
The original claim that FSD was not enabled was a lie made up before the raw video was released. As soon as the raw video was released proving it was enabled they were forced to recant due to video evidence of their lies. Lie number 2.
The Tesla content creators then claimed the steering wheel was being moved because hands were on the wheel (even though Tesla claims this is how it is meant to be used). Video does not clearly show wheel torque, so they were able to lie with impunity. Subsequent videos then showed hands clearly off the wheel before impact making it impossible for the Tesla content creators to lie about that. Lie number 3.
The Tesla content creators then claimed the accelerator was being pressed because the accelerator was not on video allowing them to were lie with impunity. Subsequent videos then showed the accelerator in the video with foot clearly off making it impossible for the Tesla content creators to lie about that. Lie number 4.
The Tesla content creators you point at are habitual liars who consistently and deliberately lie about what is not visible only to be repeatedly proven to be lying through more thorough video documentation while the Dawn Project has been shown to be truthful and accurate in all cases. Truly sunlight is the best disinfectant.
