As a motorcyclist who commutes in this very area daily, this shit really sucks to read. My condolences to the young man on his way along the infinite expanse.

I hate the idea of cameras watching where your eyes are, but sheesh, this is ridiculous. It might be necessary.

For the record, I tested my partner's Toyota adaptive cruise control, it reliably sensed a motorcycle ahead of me in the rain. Know why it reliably worked even in semi-fog? It has fucking radar, Elon dunce.

Autopilot will often detect a MC, and then the drive planner doesn't do anything about it. The software is total garbage.
