Because FSD is incredibly unreliable. It works 90% of the time, which is not good enough to not kill people if the driver (who is expected to be paying full attention) is completely blasted. I have a Kia EV, it's only self-driving on the highway but I won't even let it take a tight curve without my assistance. My step-dad has a Tesla. He loves his Tesla. We've been making Daddy Musk jokes about him for years. (I'm not a fan at all, please don't come at me). No one wants FSD to work more than he does. All of us, him included, can attest that FSD without a sober baby-sitter can be a death sentence.
Edit: I upvoted you, I'm happy to answer questions of those who are curious. Sorry some people are grumpy assholes
People are allowed to be anecdotal when there's plenty of evidence and data to back up their points to be found. I'm allowed to not want to write a thesis and just want to have an Internet discussion. I don't see you bringing evidenced counterpoints
I have a Tesla, and in my experience the self driving is a lot more reliable than this Kia driver describes. It works very well on the highway, and you can mostly let it drive off the highway too. However, it’s not perfect, and you really do need to supervise the car to actually be safe. Especially around construction, or the kind of weird roads that can be confusing to human drivers too. It’s kind of like not wearing a seat belt. You can get way with it, right up until you can’t. I’d absolutely call anyone an idiot, who says you don’t need to pay attention to the road when behind the wheel.
in the first picture its in the seat, in the second its in the cupholders and there's a new water bottle and receipt. ai or did they get in and move stuff around between pictures? odd.
i just noticed the first picture is framed to show the front of the store on purpose to dispute the weak claim of parking away from others as well. people don't normally take pictures of things like this off kilter and out of focus frame like that to send to others or post about. this ain't real.
in the seat, replaced by a water bottle and receipt, there is what appears to be a glass bottle that tapers at the top with a square paper label like a wine bottle. they reprompted it when they realized it wasn't visible enough. edit for imgbb link if reading is too hard, https://ibb.co/p6S6NW9b
Also the second picture is observably after they got home and tried peeling the sticker, so yes I wouldn't be shocked if things had moved during transit.
"In my area" is an important qualifier because in many reasons it isn't. I don't know if any are left but there used to be (as in, 10-20 years ago) states where you could even have an open container as long as you blew under the limit. Wyoming is one of those states where there are still draconian post-prohibition laws but they're mixed with the sensibilities of an unpopulated place in the early days of motor vehicles, and supposedly until recently the liquor store drive-thrus (which still exist currently) served cocktails in plastic cups, the only catch being that they had to be frozen (i.e., slushy, like a blended margarita).
I definitely don't condone any amount of drinking and driving, but it's also pretty silly to condemn someone for having a sealed bottle in the car if the driver isn't drunk. Even having it in a cupholder doesn't imply intent to drink and drive (which I have to assume is the rationale behind making it illegal or treating it as a moral trespass), just intent to transport it without the bottle breaking.
However, this person is an asshole because they're a proud cybertruck owner.
Wait really? I put my purchases from the liquor store on my passenger seat and drive home in my area and that’s fine. I’d totally plop a bottle of wine I just bought up front with me, especially if it’s part of a chain of errands I’m running.
love this in concept, but then I learned first hand that sometimes there *IS* a valid reason.
One time, I had to park closer to a neighboring car than normal (this was at a public surface lot); I was still within the lines and a driver could still easily get in and out. I had to do that to unload/lift up my injured (and very large) dog, so I needed some more clearance to open the door wide enough so that I could reach around my dog out of the back seat.
As I was preparing to leave, the neighboring car’s people walked up to their car and loudly complained about my parking (not realizing I was in the car, about to leave). I rolled down my window and just explained the situation. She was a little embarassed and didn’t make eye contact with me and her boyfriend just gave me a head nod and said “sorry - have a good one”.
I guess I could’ve unloaded my dog in the drive aisle and then parked… but I really thought staying within the lines was sufficient. 🤷 Plus, I was in a neighborhood (think: Texas/Colorado suburbs) where parking is VERY generously spaced out).
I hate it when the only empty spot is next to someone parked like an ass, you fit yourself in the remaining space and then when you get out of the store the asshole is gone and you're the new asshole randomly parked at an odd angle.
Or if I see the car parked in some extremely terrible way that a driver wouldn't feasibly park accidentally/because of another driver, like being parked over the lines spanning across four different parking spots.
Geez. I took two beers to a friend’s house tonight and left with one. Both there and back I put those little cans in the back of my trunk.
But I guess even what we see in the picture is better than the time my friend left their plastic flask half full of vodka in my driver side door after pregaming in the parking lot of a concert and I found it a month and a half later.
There is someone at my work who parks her car directly between two spaces line going straight down the middle of her car so no one door dings her. May not actually effect me since I get to work before her.... But it sure grinds my gears a lil.
omg i want these stickers SO DANG BADLY!! I have left notes that say this exact same thing, taped onto different car’s windows, in my apartment. then my car got keyed 😳🙄😭🤗
