This Tesla Robotaxi demo video is a mess.

Watch as the car makes a left turn from the wrong lane, ignoring a red light. The safety operator steps in, and the car comes to a stop… right in the middle of the intersection.

Eventually, it completes the illegal turn after blocking traffic for 45 seconds, which raises the question, what exactly is the safety operator there for?

    As dumb as this tech is in its current state, it still seems safer to me than human drivers. So far they’ve had very few accidents. Human drivers will do a dangerous maneuver to get in front of you then at the red light they’ll get out of the car and try kick your ass.
