Autopilot and Roundabouts

[Mkorpal]

It can't possibly act any worse than real drivers do, can it?

Do you live in Carmel, IN?

As soon as I saw this thread title I thought "I bet he lives in Carmel". Ha! Knew it!

The autopilot capability promised by Tesla in 2 years is well beyond the technical level of simple traffic-circle navigation. What do you think "fully autonomous" means?

 

[ModelNforNerd]

I ask all of you today to look up the following:

"Kelley Square, Worcester, MA"


If Tesla can navigate THAT on its own, I'll be impressed.

I thought I've read somwhere Olli can do roundabout. If you don't know Olli, here ya go.

For those with patience for someone new to this forum: why can't I "like" posts? I don't even see an option to do so.

I didn't notice that when I joined, but I noticed I couldn't always edit my comments after I joined. But I don't know why exactly that was or how long it took to change.

There's some balding, albino creepy monkey-man looking guy around here that may know the answer.

Use a real browser like chrome or firefox and there will be light grey icons above the quote and reply links.

JeffK, it's not a browser issue. It seems to be my new status, as other users have pointed out.

I believe that after a certain number of posts, you'll eventually get the ability to "like" posts and change your profile picture. I told myself it was a good mini-test of the patience I'd need to wait for my Model 3.

Thanks, I'll work on my patience as well!

I think that's correct, I don't have them yet either.

Man, I thought I had them on day one but then again I post quite often

The correct term is ROUNDABOUND:

We disagree.

I'm not sure I understand what you are disagreeing with...

 

[Jersey Shore Tom]

I'm not sure I understand what you are disagreeing with...

That the correct term is roundabound (or roundabout), in NJ they are circles.

 

[JeffK]

That the correct term is roundabound (or roundabout), in NJ they are circles.

Actually new jersey hates traffic circles and they are looking to redesign them into roundabouts... they are slightly different. Roundabouts are generally safer.

 

[Genshi]

That's what it says... Both Carmel and Fishers have their share of roundabouts. Equally there are morons who yield to no oncoming traffic as if there's a magical stop sign. This usually results in me honking at them in anger as that behavior defeats the purpose of a roundabout...

Funny you should mention that. I lived in PA for years and traveled through Jersey a lot. Moved to Portland and the one major roundabout we have has, you guessed it, stop signs. I rant to anyone that will listen how fckn stupid that is and how it defeats the whole point... drives me completely bonkers.

last time I was in Portland I saw a stop sign ... I was like WTF is that!

 

[BagheeraNY]

Sorry, I have no choice:

Well not really sorry , but I really had no choice.

I guess this will be the first song we play in our Model 3 as we enter what we in New Jersey know is correctly called a circle.

Ha! My wife is also from New Jersey and everything she does is also "correct" Also, what's up with those jug handles??

Watch the video Tom; I was joking; Darth Vader was not.
