Isn't it scary that #Tesla can decisde by themselves what data is "sensitive" and can just hide it from the reports

If a company where to run public beta tests with their autopilot functions they should be held A LOT more accountable 🤷

Why is the US always backwards?

The more power a person has, the less accountability, the more riskier a business, fewer laws and rules

@randahl This is literally murder. I don't care what anybody says, Elon Musk is a murderer and he knows that very well. He is selling lies about self-driving cars, convincing people of the technology, when in reality it's complete garbage and it's been known already that Elon censors accidents from his cars.
Now Trump is complicit in these murders. GG

Tesla, Trump Transition Team Both Oppose Car Crash Reporting Regulation

Gee I wonder why 🤔

Tesla vehicles were involved in 40 out of 45 fatal crashes reported to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) through Oct. 15, based on a Reuters analysis of data. The company has drawn lawsuits over its autopilot and “full self-driving” systems, as well as a Department of Justice investigation.

I wonder how much of this shift is due to #ElonMusk hanging around #DonaldTrump & #MAGA‽ Perhaps it is the business first attitude that #Trump & #Republicans share, which may have convinced #Elon to view #ClimateChange as a back burner issue.

Either way this new shift will enrage the #GlobalWarming community, who are already upset with the incoming #GOP administration.
