Perhaps it's time they consider lidar? Elon hasn't seen the WHY yet?

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has stated that cameras are the only sensors self-driving vehicles need, and that Tesla's electric vehicles do not use lidars. Musk has previously called lidar "expensive appendices" and "a fools' errand". He has also said that any company that relies on lidar for its autonomous capabilities is "doomed".

Now, try to be an engineer that tries to "correct" him. Musk's ego is so fat, if it walks by in front of your TV, you will miss the whole season.
