Much like the mass shootings in the U.S., there's literally no solution for this. /s

Well, what are we 'aposta do?!
Strangle these defenseless corporations with the same kind of regulations we continue to create and impose on small businesses? Do you even know who their father is?!

So motorcyclists weren't enough, they're going after kids now? Did they move their headquarters to israel?

So, the USA people are the beta testers, i guess.
only Texans... (with the robotaxis)
Texas state legislature has passed a law making it illegal for cities to pass laws more restrictive than the state laws and Austin which is known to be full of progressives. This makes it a perfect place for Tesla to beta-test it's software. They'll kill people likely to vote for Democrats.

Let's not get carried away pretending America cares too much about children dying frfr.
Yeah once they're out of the womb, fuck 'em. We only care about the unborn.
They don't actually care about the unborn either. They just want women to suffer, that's always been the only goal.

I guess there's going to be a lot of heroes popping Robo-Taxi tires. To protect their community and all that.
I recall that people blocked Waymo cars at one point by simply placing orange cones in front of them. Given Teslas only use cameras I wonder if you could just slap a sticker of an orange cone (or just a splash of orange paint) on the hood and confuse it enough that it wouldn’t move…
Edit: Or, if you really want to be a dick, get some black stickers (the stronger the glue the better) and surreptitiously put them over one or more cameras.
Given Teslas only use cameras
This still blows my mind. My fucking robot vacuum uses LiDAR, and multi-ton vehicles on public roads use cameras? Jesus Christ.
"Well you see lidar cameras are expensive. Yeah... that's the excuse. No more questions" - Tesla whenever they are asked to explain themselves
Actually the excuse Musk uses is that humans only use their eyes to drive, so that’s enough for cars as well.
Wrong on so many levels…
Right... except for hearing horns, sirens or brakes screeching. Feeling a bump in the road and using the tactile feedback to determine if you should swerve or stop.
Elon Musk has been chaffeured the vast majority of his life and it shows.

Texas releasing these things in public is horrifying. Tesla is last in this field, and refuses to add LIDAR, which is obviously what is needed.
My $60 robot vacuum has lidar....
Maybe you can get a business going mounting roombas on Tesla bumpers?
Call it clean energy

Not unexpected.
Move fast and break things!
Move fast and break ~~things~~ schoolchildren!
I still don't get how anyone thought this notion was ever considered a good strategy for anything... it clearly shows these people have no skin in the game because there is no way they would break their own things
This is exactly what it is. Move fast, and break other people's things. Then never fucking take responsibility

Did you mean: Move fast and murder children?
"fail faster" was always my favourite

I wonder if the FSD disengaged mere seconds before impact so Tesla can blame anything but their shitty software.
They should throw in a loony tunes landscape for extra comedic value.
Mark Rober already did that.
Elon is not going to personally take responsibility for his cars?
These accidents could be the dell knell for Tesla with the lawsuits that will follow
Hooray for the free market!
I'm sure all the dead children would have been proud to be collateral damage for such an important event!
Worth saving this article for future class actions. Go go go!
Well DUH! It's trained off of the asshats who drive them, and most of them blow right past flashing red school buses and stop signs.
ok maybe this is easier to address: is there any safety test that a self driving Tesla doesn't fail?
