    No one should use these to go to a random address that might be on a highway or at the corner of these two busy streets and then accidentally forget to close the door. Definitely no one should do such a thing.

    If this is the only incident within 24 hours of a limited rollout, I guess it’s going better than expected.

    Still fucking atrocious overall, but I guess we’ll have to wait for the real incidents to happen. Hopefully no bystanders suffer from it.

        Hah, that’s more like what I expected. Looks like it was trying to go straight in a left only lame and cut someone off as well as crossing the double yellow. A competent evil company would’ve at least meticulously mapped out the city to make for a good showing at launch, but it looks like elons ego is still king.

        Here’s hoping nobody’s on the sidewalk when one of these decides to kamikaze into a building.

        Even taking bribes and other corruption into account, these things are such a blatant safety hazard that I’m surprised they’re allowed on the road.

        I think that’s actually the robotaxi “logo”. I’ve seen other promo pictures that say robotaxi on the front door

          Elon actually can’t avoid making the absolute most cringe choice with anything, can he.

            It might be a feature to keep the car from being vandalized. Someone sees the car parked in an intersection and thinks “someone should scratch a penis into that a**hole’s car for parking there, oh looks like someone did already! Noize!” And there! Asset protected (until it drives itself into the wall while on FSD).

    I’m laughing at the fact that they have “Robotaxi” scrawled on the side in the same atrocious, psychotic lettering as “Cybertruck”.
