According to the article, a stopped truck is in the same class of objects as an overhead sign, so a lot of false alarms would be going off if this wasn't also fixed.

Which is odd within itself, my Subaru which uses optical (visual) sensors can detect stationary vehicles fine even at highway speeds.

Does Tesla's system have no optical sensors?
