Who gets the ticket, the auto pilot?

"Sign here."

"Hey don't look at me, He did it."

They need to stop messing around with these self driving cars and give the public what we really want. Flying cars!

I saw a Telsa on the streets of Kansas City yesterday! Who knew?

He stopped, then ran a stop light making a left turn.

He can always blame it on the auto-pilot, if he gets caught, right?

I wonder if in the future, cops won't do breathalyzers, they'll do viruslyzers. Will the hackers be able to ransomware a car ?

These collisions involving Tesla's Autosteering (aka Autopilot) are becoming so common they need to add a new code to the list of driver citations. I propose DWTA - Driving While (under/using) Tesla Autopilot

These are the kinds of thing which make robots want to tear their hair out.

The autopilot refused a breathalyzer test but was released after producing a valid Florida driver's license.

But it wasn't fair. The police cruiser wasn't shown in Ottopilot's map database.

I saw Tesla last year. They opened for Poison, who opened for Def Leppard. It was a good show, but someone really needs to take the driver's licenses away from that band.

I doubt yelling "Klaatu Barata Nikto" at the car would have been effective.

Sometime in the future during the first SpaceX manned mission:

"Ok, engage the autopilot."
"OH MY GOD, NO!! DON'T DO IT!!! AAAHHHHH!!!"

Runs into the moon.
