WWTBAM Bored

I'm thinking the guy was in the driver's seat and not really hanging on good, nor belted in and he over accelerated due to inexperience in the car. I road in a Tesla for the first time last week. The owner, and driver, is not a fully grown 55 year-old man, at least maturity wise. His business partner, my consultant, says he is a little boy when it comes to big boy toys. Anyway, that thing is scary fast. The acceleration I can only compare to Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point, or maybe an aircraft carrier catapult.

I had seen that earlier and noticed "Woodlands" and thought of you.

I have made no secret of my disdain for and fear of "self-driving" cars. It is one of my big soapbox things.

It struck me yesterday that we label them wrong to call them "Self-driving" cars when in reality, they are "System-Driven" cars.

I can think of no better way for TPTB (whoever they might be) to instantly deny transportation to a population than to speed the transition to "System-Driven" cars. Pretty easy to flip the switch and shut off transportation in a time of civil unrest or war or whatever.

Supposedly no one was in the drivers seat, only passenger and back.

Also wonder about the time of the drive, 11:30 pm...do you think a couple of "pops" could have been involved?

Tesla says the car did not have the self-driving feature, and if it did it couldn't have been engaged, and if it was couldn't have exceeded the speed limit.
