    The point was to illustrate the failure of the visual system from way back then. And considering the price point of Teslas, the fact they still don’t have lidar today is criminal.

      The point is that no consumer system on the road back then would have reliably prevented that incident, and it is better today.

      Edit: to clarify, youre trying to say it isnt even basic because back then it failed at something everything would have failed at.

        it failed at something everything would have failed at.

        Lidar first started getting deployed commercially in cars in 2017.

        it is better today.

        Teslas are still using the same sensors today that they were back then.

      That would require the muskrat to experience a moment of self reflection and admit he was wrong about something.
