I’ve warned for years that Tesla considered “pole position” that their driverless system had crashed into one.

Winning!

Like how SpaceX cheers when their rockets are prematurely exploding.

I have even pointed out before that a Waymo recall for post detection issues was evidence of the known problems Tesla has been ignoring.

Well, here we are in 2025 with 2.6 million Tesla now officially being investigated by the NHTSA for a remarkable inability to see posts and … wait for it … OTHER CARS!

You can’t make this news up.

NHTSA investigates Tesla’s remote car control feature. Preliminary investigation follows four reported crashes. Vehicles failed to detect posts or parked vehicles when using feature

Hey! Parked vehicles are the easy ones for Tesla to see. Once those pesky other people start driving their vehicles on roads, forgetaboutit, expect fatal head-on Tesla collisions.

Basically experts finally are starting to discuss with more certainty how Tesla “Smart Summon”, “Autopilot”, “Full Self-Driving”… are all a pack of low-grade rushed cheats and unnecessary unsafe misrepresentations that will never achieve anything close to their marketed capabilities let alone their name.

Boom.
