In the piece — titled “Can You Fool a Self Driving Car?” — Rober found that a Tesla car on Autopilot was fooled by a Wile E. Coyote-style wall painted to look like the road ahead of it, with the electric vehicle plowing right through it instead of stopping.

The footage was damning enough, with slow-motion clips showing the car not only crashing through the styrofoam wall but also a mannequin of a child. The Tesla was also fooled by simulated rain and fog.

    Nah, I’m looking at the results to rather benign posts and me trying to not be an ass and seeing the rather over the top responses. Either somebody’s botting or they’ve got a pretty solid ride or die crew. I don’t really care either way, negative karma doesn’t really hit the same way here as it does on other sites.
