Clearly the courts agreed that this woman could not have expected the coffee to be so dangerous, why on Earth do you?

Wasn't it proven that they shipped the coffee out way hotter than it needed to be?

Autopilot is, at best, a Level 2 automous driving technology. That means the vehicle is capable of operating on its own under specific conditions but is not sophisticated/redundant enough to be able to completely take over under certain circumstances, requiring manual driver intervention. 

 

I don't really find fault with the Autopilot system itself as it works as would expected as a driver assistance system . What I'm questioning is Tesla's marketing and strategy for the system. Not too long ago, there was a firmware update that somehow undid the fix applied to the Autopilot software after this crash that would make the system less likely to turn towards dividers in dividing lanes. 

With the new FSD Dual Chips they are implementing I believe they will reach level 3... But for now, that is all. Even when we reach level 5 in say, 10-25 years, you should pay attention to whatever the fuck you are doing, you are in the driver´s seat. And also, it is your life, take fucking care of it.

McDonald's claims their coffee is at the temperature they keep it at to "lock in the flavor" so whether or not it actually needs to be that hot is a different discussion, but I will note that Starbucks even does keep their coffee significantly cooler.

If car has problems with something as basic as dividers on the road, I wouldn't let that thing drive me around for even 10 meters...
