02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMLisa to help the clients get out the house more if we had Tesla cars in the medical field and electric cars that drive by themselves in the medical field
@WilliamEnwerem-o3p
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMAnd what if imagine getting an electric car car that drives by itself and it takes you to your doctor's appointment to take you anywhere you want to go in the world and you don't have to touch the pedal or the wheel or the gas you just sit in the car and let it talked to the car in the car to tell you where you want to go to
@WilliamEnwerem-o3p
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMWhat if ever climbed in the medical field have their own electric car to go to the doctor's appointments
@WilliamEnwerem-o3p
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMWhat if we had Tesla cars for all the clients in the medical field
@WilliamEnwerem-o3p
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI think that would be cool if we had Tesla cars in the medical field
@WilliamEnwerem-o3p
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMWe need more electric cars in the medical field we need electric cars in West Virginia we need more taxes in West Virginia we need more electric cars in Kentucky and Ohio and West Virginia we need electric cars in the medical field

02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMWould any man allow a Robot to "drive" his wife?
@dudovich13
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMNo.
@limitone9564
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMScratch the idea! How much was the SF mayor paid for all the car companies to test it inow SF? That's the question!
@RanjeethMD
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMNot ready yet like battery cars and internal combustion engines which catch fire but still run.
Ask Ola very famous for Olympics torch on Indian roads.
@coreylucas5997
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMPlease NOoooo 😮
@davidberchtold3859
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThe day that they say that you can remove your hands from the steering wheel while driving… That's the day that I get off the road.
@Ograws
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMReal drivers aren't that much better
@masquereseau5635
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThe real question should be: Is that old overconfident grandpa ready to drive tonight? Is that young junkie ready to stop at the stop sign?
@RickyIcecubes
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMWe are at least 20 years away from self driving cars becoming common, and 30 years away from the day where everyone has a self driving car.
@SharonScott-bx3wz
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMNo thanks how many jobs would disappear
@nurnberg18
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMY'all don't trust driverless drivers but you trust the grandma who can't see driving down the road 😂. I can't believe they let yall vote
@SteveKemboi
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThis is the future
@wondereagle

@marky4x429
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI wish driverless cars become standard soon. So I can send my car to cinema while I comfortably stay at home enjoying my chess computers play against each other.
@palimdragonmaster3k
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThats hilarious
@DerekDavis213
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMTesla FSD has been in development for years, but even today it makes mistakes on any challenging route.
A high school kid can drive better than the FSD computer .
@earth7451
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI feel safer in a driverless car and riding with an unknown man.
@dmitrybrooklyn
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMMore innocent people are getting hit smh
@daviddenmark3580
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThese things will never be ready full time. There are so many unknowns with these driverless vehicles, but we do know that they will never be perfect. Every day we learn something “new” with the software that we should’ve already known. These things are crashing in to buses, crashing into emergency vehicles, striking pedestrians and people jogging, and even hitting other stopped cars. Even forcing EVERYONE to go driverless will not solve all of the problems because there are so many other variables to consider. There are cyclists on the roadways, there are pedestrians and people running/jogging out there, motorcycle riders etc who will all not be controlled by a computer.
@MadDragon75
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMAre you kidding me? You guys sat there all that time when all you had to do was get out and drive? 😂😂😂😂
Whatever happened to here hold my beer?
😄😄😄😄
@quaziz
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMIt's important to take the total amount of crashes if you want to compare.
@zacharybrady2271
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThis is the worst driverless cars will ever be. In a year or two it will just be a fact that driverless cars r many times safer than human drivers
@tatata1543
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMThat’s a no then.
@guardianpresencerobotics7776
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMGuardian robotics
To fix the self driving car industry and electric car industry from failure and catalyses them into fail proof industrie guardian propose that the car industry give back the controls to the hands of consumers by making ecu and hbridgs that can eject with one unclip latch and spring loaded push to eject that will cut controls off the wheel motors and give back the power to self drivers .
@utkua
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMDid they solved the interference between multiple radars in multiple cars. Since nobody mentions it it must be solved right?
@nicholashylton6857
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMWho needs to invest in an effective public transportation system when you can put more cars on the road?
@rahulbanerjee6635
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AM2050 all car driverless.
@robertherman1146
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI'm waiting for passengerless cars.
@quiettornado1970
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI trust driverless car then humans, considering that I've heard of so many humans drivers run over pedestrians and I've been almost ran over 5 times and two of those times I've gotten swiped by human drivers.
@RoseTurner-lj5yc
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMNO!
@JohnElla-t7h
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI'm writing this a few weeks after California gave permission for Waymo to develop operations all throughout the State. WOW! The future is now😮😊. Lots of ongoing work to do, friends.
@lazarusblackwell6988
02/13/2025 - 12:27 AMI will be happy to use self driving cars.
If it means more reliability im all for it.
Sure,as with every tech,kinks have to be rooted out first.
