Is/n't Tesla literally/figuratively crashing?

[Fondue]

Actually I take that back now that I recalled how it all went down. I was doing closer to 40mph over the limit, and 35+ is automatic reckless I think, but I wasnt an ass and basically rolled over on my back the second the lights came on so he lowered it to 30mph which I think put me at just the limit from it being reckless driving.

It's a 70 speed limit? We've got 65 here, but not 70.

[Fondue]

honestly you could kill someone and you should feel bad for driving like that

get yourself a motorcycle and just endanger yourself like a real man

Of course. But reckless is above careless, and I feel like reckless should be reserved for willfully driving dangerously.

But thats my bias, and I guess intent doesnt matter when deciding between careless and reckless lol

Being that he admitted to turning on autopilot so he can deal with a dog in the back seat of his car, i'd say that's pretty damn reckless and driving dangerously.

We have some highways at 75 here. Literal two-lane highways with no shoulders.

Highways and parkways here in CT are 55 or 65 (sometimes lower in the cities)

I wanna say when I went to Maine, I95 was 80 or 85 in some area? I could be remembering wrong and it was 75

[Rooney]

I'm in TX. We have at least one stretch of interstate that goes up to 85? (regardless, people here drive 10 over as a rule, so basically 95) Had a big problem with people smashing into couple hundred pound feral hogs and totaling cars. I refuse to go 75 on those highways though. They were clearly not designed for that kind of speed.

In some states Reckless is defined as X violations within 1 mile. So if you are speeding in a car with 1 headlight while changing lanes without signaling, that would be Reckless.

What, like this guy?

New all-time high on the stock today despite just yesterday failing to raise the cap on EV credits which would've hugely boosted sales.

Tesla is also developing it's own solution to mass transit.

Concept art:

Spoiler: show

Tesla did end up unveiling the Tesla Semi, the “heavy-duty truck”, but it never unveiled a vehicle for “high passenger-density urban transport.”

Musk has talked about Tesla making an electric minibus based on the Model X.

It’s the only electric vehicle that is officially part of the Tesla Master Plan and that the automaker has yet to officially unveil.

The Boring Company is currently working on a new ‘Loop’ in Las Vegas that should become their first fully deployed commercial project.

The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) commissioned the project, which started construction and should be completed by the end of next year.

When I talked to Steve Davis, President of the Boring Company, about the project earlier this year, he couldn’t confirm what vehicle would be moving passengers in the Loop.

He said that they were still considering the new system using the Model X or a new passenger vehicle closer to the concept above.

How does it get out of that parking space? Is it a hover vehicle?

[6souls]

I'm going to go with "all-terrain."

[Tokitoki]

Reminds me of Roller Coaster Tycoon, tricking guests into shit that traps them.

It literally goes underground and pops up at transit stops like the concept art above. This is what the Boring Company is setting out to do - bore out "subways" for their Tesla transit infrastructure. Since it is all electric, the hole can be much smaller. This was Elon's pitch for the beta version in Chicago from O'Hare Int'l Airport to Block 37 (a transit hub in the Loop). From what I gathered that venture has gone bust, but I see it is still moving forward in Las Vegas.

[Tokitoki]

Ah, I figured the loop and the bus were separate since they didn't specify it was for the loop. I was thinking auto-driving bus.
