An open letter to the Tesla fan who wants to run over a kid to prove a point - The Verge

Tesla fans who want to run over a child to prove a point about Full Self-Driving should instead not do that. Let’s not harm children just to win a Twitter fight.

Dear Tesla fan who wants to run over a kid to prove a point,

Hi, my name’s Andy and I’m a transportation editor. I saw on Twitter — yes, I know, not a great place to see things — that you were going to run over a kid to prove a point. Something about Tesla and Autopilot and some video on Twitter — again, bad place, should avoid — of a test showing a Tesla vehicle running over a kid-sized dummy and you wanting to prove that those tests are bogus and wrong so you were going to try to run over a real kid to prove your point.

It’s 2022, and Teslas still aren’t stopping for children. pic.twitter.com/GGBh6sAYZS
