Tesla's Robotaxis Blow Through School Zones, NHTSA Petition Alleges

Probably just re-enacting the training data.
bryanlarsen•42m ago
Tesla/Musk has stated many times that FSD will follow common practice rather than follow the letter of the law. Over 90% of Americans speed in school zones, so FSD is presumably programmed to also do so.

https://rosap.ntl.bts.gov/view/dot/27029

As a normal human citizen, speeding in a school zone carries a risk of a significant ticket, with repeat offenses adding points until my license is suspended.

What consequences does Elon Musk face when his autonomous cars do the same?

Tepix•21m ago
That's your main worry? My worry is to hit a child that comes running from behind a vehicle.
telcodud•9m ago
On a Tesla robotaxi article, you're highlighting a Waymo incident when Waymo is approved for a fully driverless operation?
stetrain•3m ago
The risk of hitting a child is the reason that we have the school zones and the penalties to enforce them.
HWR_14•27m ago
Who speeds in a school zone? It's like 1000ft of going slow so you don't hit a child
Rebelgecko•10m ago
Where I live (Los Angeles), probably 90% of drivers
dawnerd•3m ago
Same in Oxnard, they put a school zone on a divided ave. No one slows down. And there's a bus stop on either side so if everyone obeyed the "when children present" it would be a huge bottleneck. Even cops fly through it.
jcranmer•9m ago
There was a commenter on a similar article a few months ago arguing that speed limits being excessively low is just for trapping drivers and there's no reason for there to ever be speed limits below 30mph.

That's the kind of person I expect who speeds in a school zone.

kakacik•27m ago
Probably one of the reasons why its not legal in Europe. On top of hyper toxic nazi personality of the owner
konschubert•16m ago
It will be approved it seems, but there will be a condition that you cannot speed more than 10% of above the limit. Which still for me is hard to understand why you then don’t just raise the limit if you think that going 10% above the law is fine?
konschubert•21m ago
Tens of thousands dead in traffic due to the “common practice” of driving unsafely. We have the opportunity here to make the roads safe but apparently mr musk doesn’t see the need.

I hope the Nordics prevail and the Europeans don’t follow his bullshit.

chadrs•17m ago
How could they say this but still claim it will be safer than humans?
lotsofpulp•5m ago
Not that the speeding is justified, but I would still bet on the computer continuously processing multiple video feeds reacting and stopping quicker than a human in almost all incidents.
Surac•42m ago
would rust have fixed this?
Xylakant•35m ago
Certainly, as long as it’s on the car and there’s enough of it.
vessenes•19m ago
My FSD 14.3 car definitely does NOT respect school zones. Maybe I’m weird, but whether or not I have the car in “Hurry” mode, I expect a hard cutoff at speed limit for a school zone of myself or anything acting on my behalf. I could understand the semantics around “Mad Max” not respecting the signage, but still. Bro. Slow down in a school zone.
konschubert•17m ago
A car should not have a “break the law” mode.

If speed limits are impractical they have to be fixed.

criddell•9m ago
In some places, that's how speed limits are fixed.

In Texas, for example, they do a traffic study and set the limit to the 85th percentile speed.

https://www.txdot.gov/safety/driving-laws/speed-limits/speed...

dawnerd•5m ago
Doesn't that just cause speeds to creep up as people think it's okay to go a little over the limit?
