Re:Drivers react to Tesla’s full self-driving beta release by argomo on Saturday October 31, 2020 @04:14PM (#24954828)
I don't know my cars that well, but an alert driver will take at least 300ms to begin reacting. That's over 8m at 60mph (not sure why we're combining unit systems here). So I'll stand in front of the Model S in this particular scenario and hope to get away with 'mere' broken legs/pelvis. Give the human more time and is probably take the human, not because that's necessarily the more reliable option, but because its distribution of outcomes is more well known to me.

Most, if not essentially all, cars in that category have emergency automatic braking, so the Model S still isn't the best choice.
