Craig Doty II, a Tesla owner, narrowly avoided a collision after his vehicle, in Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode, allegedly steered towards an oncoming train.
Nighttime dashcam footage from earlier this month in Ohio captured the harrowing scene: Doty’s Tesla rapidly approaching a train with no apparent deceleration. He insisted his Tesla was in Full Self-Driving mode when it barreled towards the train crossing without slowing down.
Musk was involved in marketing and lying about it, though, and his extremely prolific public image is what gave it so much credibility. He’s lost a lot of that credibility now though, largely because people have spent a lot of time criticizing him. If you want him to disappear from the public eye that’s great, so do I, but he’s one of the most powerful men in the world, so that’s not going to happen.
Well why are you lending him further credibility by continuing to make him prolific? You’re just feeding into his goal of garnering more attention at every turn. Media outlets will continue to focus on all his insane ramblings because people like you are guaranteed to click on it.
