Self-driving tech is widely distrusted by the public, and Tesla’s huge Autopilot recall and Cruise’s scandals don’t seem to have helped.

    If you’re close enough to the car in front of you that them slowing down by 25kph causes you to almost hit them, you’re too close for the speed you’re traveling.

    It doesn’t matter if there’s a clear reason for it or not, or if everyone else is breaking the law. You’re responsible for maintaining a safe distance, not the person you’re behind.

    3 car lengths is not a sufficient distance for 125kph.

      Easy Karen I don’t need a driving lesson, I did not get into a fucking accident because I was paying attention to the road and traffic around me. Something the driver(s) of the Tesla was not doing because who the fuck slows down suddenly on a highway with no one in front of you?

      Seriously take the hard sandpapery object out of your ass and calm down
