I'm still not buying one of those jalopy ass shits.

Yes, but you'll be on the roads with them.

[–] LarryLurkman@lemm.ee 34 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yup, and that sleazy ass pig Donald Trump is making the roads more dangerous. I'm sick of his fucking shit.

He does look like an ass pig.

We hide from the robots during the rain and snow, because they can't see where they have to go

I didn't even think about that. My adaptive cruise doesn't even work in the snow because the sensor gets covered up. And I'm pretty sure that's better tech than what Tesla uses.

I feel like this is more incentive not to purchase one, than to purchase one

I don’t wanna get hit by one of these waiting for the bus.

[–] Boeman@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

Why would a self driving car be waiting for a bus?

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Well that's OK. There's too many massive emotional support vehicles on the road already.
