That's just it. If a Tesla can't figure out that it shouldn't drive through the big red thing, then it can't do anything at all. I don't have any idea why that happened. It seems odd. I'm afraid I'm always a little suspicious of such stories, since so many turn out to be people lying about the auto-driving. It's entirely possible that Tesla failed to train the things on fire engines. I rode in a Tesla the other day and was a bit surprised that it didn't note ambulances as different from other trucks. If they've failed to train them on any emergency vehicles, that's a serious problem: there are laws like "pull over for fire trucks" that it can't follow. And again, that's not a problem LIDAR can solve. Something is very wrong if it identified a big red object as a thing it was allowed to drive on. LIDAR would solve the accident, but not the fundamental question of whether self-driving would work at all. |

Tesla are scared of clouds and shadows and don't see big metal boxes
It's 100% something a lidar would help with. It wouldn't hit shadows or clouds but it definitely would hit a big metal box early enough to at least brake instead of accelerating
