Default Safety Engineer bashes Tesla Self-Driving System.

I'm not sure if this TV ad is too political for CL, but I have seen it aired on TV, in the middle of the day, for several days now. It has, IMO, a fair amount of credibility.

They should just let it play out and let the best system win as the standard. No reason to attack it

Thread going to probably end up with some saying this is fud and make excuses for Tesla and others completely hating tesla and use this as an aha! I've seen other videos testing the credibility of this video and they all arrived at the same conclusion...they child would be dead and Tesla will continue to get a pass for their full self driving system.

One of my best friends in middle school was run over while walking down a highway in the center lane drunk at appox age 30.
He was not hit by a Tesla.

What I see here is a short selling of stocks windfall of cash for the people on the "inside" who work with guys like in this video, nothing is coincedence.
Then they'll say it's not so bad and the stocks go back up.
I've seen the "pump and dump and pump" many times and the major share holders, minus elon, says everything.

Here's his "credibility"


This guy is running for political office; he's not a safety advocate.

You mean an ad paid for by the Dawn Project, founded by Senate candidate Dan O'Dowd of Green Hills Software who just happen to develop autonomous driving systems?\

Or the small matter of the ads showing FSD might not have engaged?

That kind of credibility?
