> Here is another idiot "testing" it out in front a school bus.

He's anything but an idiot: it helps raises awareness of the serious issues Tesla self-driving have. He was also obviously ready to act immediately, which he did, and no kids were ever at risk in that vid.

Some other individual might not be ready to act immediately. This is really where you want trained safety drivers sent by the engineering team to do targeted testing.

So he’s… still not an idiot. Maybe rethink your comment.

Nah, I stand by it, especially after how he justified it in YouTube comments. Zero reason to turn on a dangerous system in front of a school bus.

It’s not dangerous if you’re explicitly expecting it to do something silly and are ready to take over.

There haven’t been any cases of it doing something the driver couldn’t stop.
