Five EU countries have now approved, including Belgium, which is interesting considering Brussels (ECC "capital").

At first I thought Tesla AI is stupid, trying to kill humans here. Then I realised: skynet has begun ... it does not care about humans.

I don't speak the language but I wonder why the video doesn't show it actually entering the lane...

Might make sense, in California's driver handbook you're required to pull into the bike lane to make a turn if the bike lane is there. Part of that programming should have already existed given where Teslas were made.

So now I am in a beta test as a vehicle dummy without a chance to opt out. My model Y can’t keep lanes what my entry level Škoda does perfectly fine. My model Y slams on the brakes occasionally when I try cruise control feature on empty highway. I reported this defect as a case for warranty, but according Tesla this is fine functionality.

Self driving without lidar just inherently feels very unsafe. There are like a million things we can’t see, especially at night and in bad weather. I just wish they would suck up their pride and put in solid state lidars in their new models (which are very cheap now) so we can actually have good self driving that is actually available directly to the consumer. Having watched a lot of the Tesla self driving videos. It seems to be getting pretty good but it’s still only at like 98 or 99% reliability what that means is I can’t go to sleep in the car and it needs to get to the point like a waymo where you can just go to sleep in the car.

A driver might get a ticket. The navigation data will be updated. The next version might be better at interpreting signs (or a better balance between the navigation data and visual perception). The end.

I was curious how people working on self driving cars handle the large variation in local and region traffic laws and did a bit of searching. For example in some places a car making a turn that will cross a bike lane is required to merge into the bike lane before the turn (California and Washington for example). On others (Oregon for example) the car must not do so. School buses are another good example. On a road with lanes in both directions when do you stop for a school bus heading the opposite way that is stopped with its red lights flashing and stop sign extended? In some place the answer is "always". In others it depends on how many lanes there and whether or not there is a barrier like a median strip between the two directions. One approach is to not let your self driving system operate in places where you have not explicitly added all the local and regional rules to your system. Another approach is to try to learn the area with AI. It sees lots of humans making turns from the bike lane, it makes its turns from the bike lane too. An issue with that approach is that a lot of humans violate traffic laws, so you have the danger that your self driving system learns to violate traffic laws.
