    I mean, I get the purpose of the test but I’m pretty sure a human would crash too.

      Humans with two working eyes can tell the difference between a flat painted surface and a 3D world. Humans with only one eye might crash, though.

        Results may vary depending on the alcohol currently running in the human blood.

        One of the things I am advocate for self driving cars is that they cannot get drunk and drive.

        Edit: aaah yes, Lemmy, downvoted per telling that people drink and drive. Classic Lemmy.

          Great, a computerized car gets tricked by things that innebriated humans might also get tricked by.

          That’s quite the bar being set.

            Drunk humans get tricked by things that computerized cars does not, though.

            But by the state of the current butlerian yihad anything technologically advanced is to be criticized and destroyed, even if it saves lives.

              technologically advanced

              Err… sir this is about Teslas, not about technologically advanced self-driving cars.

                Most people have exactly the same opinion about any self-driving car. Even those using lidar.

                Lemmy has a high anti technology bias.

          This is on bar with the comment that was something on the lines of “yes Tesla is bad and crashes but humans can be on their phone and crash too so why criticize self-driving cars?” Nice whataboutism.

            This is a response to a comment that said that a human being would drive better to specify that it’s being vastly proven that that is not the truth.

            But, once again, we are in Lemmy. So New Technology = bad.

        I doubt someone without depth perception would crash either. They’d notice the straps on the side, and things not being the exact colour shade. Might think it was a big piece of glass set up on the road, but that wouldn’t be something you’d just plow through.
