a robotaxi would require a second source of validation during an investigation that resulted from an accident.

I thought so but everyday? Nah.... I even took the same destination post the school hours and it took me through the school zone....

in my case, it avoids the roads that are school zones during those hours when the yellow light is blinking

This is a great scenario. What would an AV do in such a situation?

This appeara to be so ridiculously political. The city is willing to identify its speed limits but does not want to play pass thr baton with the highway authorities. So they are not going to put themselves in a spot where they will speak on behalf of them to identify the highway speed limit.

what is the track width front & rear? That will help to understand how you can go for a square setup

Was the sunrise or sunset looking into the camera? That is the only 1 time I have had the devil red hands come up when I was entering the highway going up the ramp and the sun looking directly into the camera.

I have written about localization, which is essentially targeted to achieve the same/similar end result, and I believe 100% that localization is happening. I have many roads and intersections that are handled liked a tourist after every upgrade but within a weeks time, the FSD is able to handle...

Next they will be asking overweight passengers to pay 25-100% more for seat on the airplane

Quick Update: The tires have about 300 miles on them and they continue the comfortable yet precision driving experience. The road noise continues to be the same no fuss no irritation no annoyance smooth buzz like white noise on all road surfaces. The range of the road noise is mid-bass and...

Good choice. The rear are what control the comfort. The front controls the feel and steering.

I have found the non highland model 3 suspension to be a lot more comfortable when your wheels are with smaller offset. Factory offset is +40. I switched to +30 and the ride is just a bit more comfortable and compliant.

That is because it does not have the foam lining.

True. Adding more stops in the information process will only lead to more latency, as will adding more sensors.

Thanks. That would be such a better choice as there are so many more tire choices with the standard factory wheel size

He needs to get a Lexus or a vehicle with an Aisin transmission

Yes. Hoping that gets better as demand drives it

First rule of communications: Use of Unique identifier. This will allow every vehicle to identify the position of other cars in their vicinity. They would not need vision anymore as each one would be transmitting their GPS signal, in addition to other standard operating parameter and every...

A Morris Minor

Tsportline sells 20”x10” with 40mm offset for rear wheels. My rough calculation says that it is the same as 20”x8.5” with +20 offset as far as maintaining the outside track width from the rim surface. Am I missing something?

My first car was the best. The harder I pressed the brake, the brighter the brake lights were. Unfortunately that feature was removed from the cars following for they went the route of relays and switches.

In an ideal world, all these FSD cars talking to each other would be the best way to ensure that the intentions of each car is clearly expressed to others on the road. That being said, the reason I raised this topic is because I was driving on FSDs yesterday through the slow rush hour traffic...

Thanks for the validation on the calculation. My car is black. The wheels are satin graphite grey. The tires are black. So other than the sky & trees, the picture is the same :D

Just got the Drag DR-83 18”x8.5” ET30 from Discount Tires mounted with Hankook Ion Evo Summer tires. These are as close as you can get to the uberturbine 20” performance wheels. Per my calculations, the DR-83 are 4mm less track width measured from external rim to rim surface.

As you said, easy is subjective. :)

Agreed but it is still a change that can be easily implemented. Why? Simply because every other method simply becomes redundant. The stalks subassembly can and are easily implemented in the new steering column wheel because it is the same. It is simply an electrical signal switch and not a...

LOL how many years do you want me to say I have experience in those areas to make you comfortable? 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 years?

review started... https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/hankook-ion-evo-summer-tire.326454/

Couple of days ago, my order for the Hankook Ion EVO arrived at my local discount tire. My scheduled appointment was for Wednesday May 1st, but Vincent the local store manager called me on Monday Apr 29 to come over and get it installed. As part of this install, I was also switching over to the...

might apply to VW etc. Tesla can and has shown it can change any month, any quarter, or any year.

Here is a picture of the Drag DR-83 18”x8.5” ET30 mounted with the brand new Hankook Ion Evo Summer tires. The second picture shows the effect of the new offset of 30 vs the standard 40. This is the original rim with ET30 mounted with Hankook Kinergy GT tires

For sure. The online Customer service agent Jeff and the local store manager Vincent were absolute gems to work with. They got everything settled out on the purchase, exchange of rims, tires, credits etc in the morning and all I had to do was show up in the afternoon.

probably going to contract it out...back to the finest of those supercharger talents.

I agree with Elon on pretty much everything except this hire & fire approach. That is a No-No.

As an employer, I would only hire for positions that were almost a lifetime requirement. Rest all would be contractors. I still think these companies are heartless satans who hire and fire rather than use contractors

Robotaxi would be geofence to a metropolitan area

M3LR 18” wheel Drag DR-83 18”x8.5” ET+30

Got myself a set of the Hankook Evo Ion Summer tires in 18" yesterday. Let's see how they perform.

I think not. onboard nuclear reactors are the way to go.

looking at the calculations for the 20"x9" performance uberturbine wheels with 34 offset, and comparing it to this +30 offset for 8.5" wheel, both of them provide almost the same outside rim track width. Performance is 2.35 mm more. So basically, my 18" look is like the performance model.

Seems like you are a product of the Tiger Mom. Anything less than 100% and you are grounded :D

I am pretty use if we had LIDAR we can park with millimeters to spare ;);)

Same happened with me at 80mph. How do you record?

That is a bicycle handlebar

Same here

Decision are made by the car. I sure believe that disengagements are reported back for them to review and improve

None so far with the latest FSDs. The earlier FSDb had a few.

Trying out these +30 offset 18x8.5” wheels. I feel this offset is so much better than the +40 when it omes to merging with the rest of the car flowlines.
