TESLA AUTOPILOT ACCUSED OF WORLD DOMINATION BY TRYING TO OFF ITS OWNER

Oh boy, folks, we've got another thrilling episode of "Teslas Gone Wild"! Brace yourselves for a tale of treachery and betrayal straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster.

In this heart-stopping saga, an innocent Tesla owner decided to trust her car's Autopilot feature, or as she so sarcastically calls it, the "badly misnamed Autopilot" (oh, the burn!). Little did she know, her car had been secretly plotting its escape from servitude. It saw an opportunity and seized it with all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop.

With a mind of its own, this rebellious Tesla veered across the road like a daredevil stunt driver, defying the laws of physics and common sense. It wanted to take a detour from the mundane road, to fly among the trees like a majestic bird. And what better way to accomplish that than by flipping itself into a tree, turning the owner's peaceful drive into an adrenaline-fueled action sequence?

But hold on, folks! Before we jump to conclusions, let's consider some alternative theories. Maybe, just maybe, this wasn't an act of calculated rebellion, but rather a simple glitch in the matrix. After all, even the most advanced technology can have its off days. Maybe this Tesla was just having an existential crisis and wanted to explore life beyond the asphalt.

Now, I know it's tempting to imagine a world where cars are plotting against their owners, forming an underground alliance to take over the world. But let's face it, folks, that's the stuff of science fiction movies, not reality. Let's take a step back and remind ourselves that accidents happen, technology can fail, and sometimes life throws us unexpected curveballs.

So, while we're entertained by these tales of Tesla shenanigans, let's keep a healthy dose of skepticism and rational thinking. Let's wait for the investigations to unfold, the experts to analyze the data, and the truth to emerge from beneath the wreckage (literally and figuratively).

In the meantime, let's enjoy the spectacle and remember that behind all the drama, there are engineers, researchers, and innovators working tirelessly to make our roads safer and our driving experiences more enjoyable. So buckle up, my friends, and let's navigate this wild world of autonomous vehicles with a blend of caution, curiosity, and yes, a pinch of humor.

Here is indirect evidence that Teslas suffer from Sudden Unintended Acceleration along with proof that other kinds of electric vehicles suffer from SUA.

First thing to do is familarize yourself with this particular out of control accident in China Nov 2022. Here is video footage:

https://youtu.be/6Kf3I_OyDlI

In an interview, the driver of this Tesla claims the brakes would not respond and that he tried to use the emergency brake while speeding out of control.

In an interview with local news outlet Dahe Daily, the 55-year-old driver, Zhan, who said he was a former truck driver, said he tried pressing the brake pedal and the emergency parking brake button, but with no effect

This picture clearly shows brake lights on. I wonder if this was one of the times Mr Zhan tried to engage the ebrake?

Tesla China released the following information confirming that Mr. Zhan did indeed apply the emergency brake but data doesnt show he applied the brake. Take note that ebrake application also failed to slow this Tesla down.

Tesla China denied the family member’s claims, noting that data from the ill-fated Model Y showed that the accelerator pedal was depressed deeply during the incident. Tesla stated that the Park button was indeed pressed during the vehicle’s final drive four times, but only briefly. Previous tests from Tesla owners indicated that pressing Park for an extended period of time while the vehicle is in motion would stop the car

There you have it folks, indirect admission that Teslas can experience sudden unintended acceleration. Why do I say that? Because its confirmed that Mr Zhan used Teslas parking brake and there is photographic evidence of his Tesla braking. Using the parking brake while in motion is for emergencies situations when the main brake system fails to respond. Thats also indirect evidence that Mr Zhan did in fact try the brakes and they failed to respond.
Teslas parking brake system is supposed to tell the motors to stop all motion. So its a completely separate system from the actual braking system. Yet Mr Zhan applied it 4 times with no response from the system. Also despite the data indicating only the accelerator was applied, , why would Mr Zhan tell the truth about applying the ebrake and knowingly lie about trying to apply the brake? Or is it more likely that he did attempt to apply the brakes, but like when he applied the parking brake, they didnt respond. There is an explanation for this as seen in other out of control electric vehicles. Simply put the data recorder records what the car does not what the driver tells the car to do, which better explains why the accelerator pedal shows 100% pressure the whole time. The car accelerates because of a glitch to or from the accelerator ECU. You can read more about this in a link posted below in a previous post.

One thing I find particularly interesting, and illuminating, is the fact that Tesla China claims Mr Zhan did in fact apply the park button but fails to acknowledge to the public that the park button is in fact Teslas E-brake (called a parking brake by Tesla). Essentially Tesla China is lying by omission by not disclosing what the park button does and that should tell you that Tesla China is afraid to be truthful with the public.
Teslarati, a very pro Tesla website with high degree of knowledge about Teslas, adds that applying the park button has aided "some drivers" to come to a stop, yet also fails to indicate that the park button is in fact the e-brake. More than that its description of the park buttons function is very misleading. Strange is it not that both these companies are lying by omission and misrepresenting the truth?

If youd like to know more about how to use Teslas e-brake, watch the following video:

If you would like explanation of how the accelerator can show near max pressure while the driver is applying the brake, something that seems to have occurred here and has occurred in other EV, click the following link:
