As well they should, for a couple of reasons.

1. Legally, just because you're a licensed driver does not mean you've been licensed to remote-operate a car, while standing on the sideline, in a pedestrian-heavy environment, where your line of sight, and your vehicle's path of travel is obstructed by hazards.

2. Teslas seem incapable of reliable collision avoidance, so you can't just expect your car to do the right thing.

Teslas seem perfectly capable of avoiding collisions so you're wrong

From the article: “ One posted a video of a Tesla striking a garage wall and another of a Tesla being struck by a vehicle backing up.”

please explain how the tesla is supposed to avoid a car backing up into it

Please explain how the Tesla was not at fault in this video:

The driver had to hit an e-stop, to prevent an accident.

And also, while we're at it, please explain how a self-driving car that is incapable of seeing that it's going to get t-boned, if it crosses an intersection where it does not have the right of way is in any way ready for the public.

We have no idea if the Tesla would have stopped itself - im positive the driver releasing the button wouldn't have the reaction time the car did thus proving the car was avoiding the accident by itself. get worked idiot

As a driver I’d avoid that by seeing the car backing up and not driving in front of it.

Was the human at fault in the video I saw? Yes IMO. But even the Tesla owner who shot the video posted it saying he wasn’t sure whether his insurance company would consider him or the other driver at fault.
