A 2025 Tesla Model 3 in Full-Self Driving mode drives off of a rural road, clips a tree, loses a tire, flips over, and comes to rest on its roof. Luckily, the driver is alive and well, able to post about it on social media.

I just don't see how this technology could possibly be ready to power an autonomous taxi service by the end of next week.

Are those the ones that you can completely immobilize with a traffic cone?

    Probably Zoox, but conceptually similar, LiDAR backed.

    You can immobilize them by setting anything large on them. Your purse, a traffic cone, a person :)

    Probably makes sense to be a little cautious with the gas pedal when there is an anything on top the vehicle.
