tl;dr: Lexus passed, Tesla failed every test
Tesla had 2 (A) Acceptable scores, but it was the worst of all systems tested.
found to be easily tricked and bad at monitoring driver attention
They didn’t even test if the cars could avoid an accident.
I know my car’s adaptive cruise can’t see a white trailer. It figures it’s open sky and accelerates.
I live in the Appalachians and so my commute is twisty mountain roads.
The last car I loaned was a maxima which immediately forgot there was a car in front of me whenever I or the car in front “disappeared” on a turn.
It would also flash tf out of people on turns and hills with its dumb auto highs.
And the name of the one that passed?
Albert Einstein.
Also, “Only one was found to be acceptable: Lexus’ Teammate with Advanced Drive.”
Thank you, rich people, for testing out these features until they are ready for the normal cars.
