  I remember watching a commercial a few years ago... You could see a person reading a magazine in a moving vehicle with a voice over saying: &quot;one day you will travel without having to look at the road, one day you will be able to go 200 mph in silence and comfort&quot;... The the camera zoomed out to reveal the person was sitting in a high speed train with the voice over saying: &quot;that day is today!&quot;

  I wonder if Silicon Valley will ever finally arrive at trains? I would be willing to let them claim they had the brilliant idea all on their own, if it gets us to where they stop reinventing worse trains.

  FSD already exists. My Dad used to work on the farm and go to the pub after. He&apos;d pass out drunk but always found his way home. The horse would just go back in the barn and finish its hay.

  Why would it even matter if a car can detect a real person vs a mannequin? When is it ever a good idea to hit the object in the middle of the road?

  It kills me when the car slows down and then, after some thought, proceeds to plow under the child. &nbsp;<br>&quot;Damn kid had too slow reflexes. That&apos;s Darwin.&quot;

  I had a coworker who complained constantly that the patrol car we both drove would constantly beep at him all night while he was driving it round. &nbsp;But it never beeped for me except occasionally on one specific section of road. &nbsp;Turns out he was such a terrible driver he was constantly tripping the lane deviation warning.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DOd4RLNeT4&amp;t=1386">23:06</a> trains! you&apos;re describing trains.<br>if you need more coverage, a subway or tram! and if you need even more — at that point just take a bike or walk.

  its funny they say it can tell it&apos;s not a real child, because there&apos;s still something there and you shouldn&apos;t drive into it

  I live in a rural area (no sidewalks) so I always have to turn off my Lane assist, because if I steer to try and avoid pedestrians on the side of the road, the car will sense I&apos;m getting too close to the centerline and actually attempt to steer me into the people I&apos;m trying to avoid.<br><br>It also likes to see shadows as lane lines and will freak out sometimes on a specific patch of road thinking i&apos;m actively driving myself into the ditch
