I’m sure someday Elon’s decision to forego LIDAR will pay off. /s

That was a non-issue. Those are little plastic things it bumped. They’re meant to be hit.
Car made the tiniest mistake and dude inside is acting like it’s dangerous.

They are not meant to be hit. They are meant to indicate not to drive there, and not cause damage when hit. They often separate bike lanes and sidewalks in the US. It got itself into a spot a car should not have been, then hit the bollards to get out of it. This is not a small mistake.

They’re meant to survive hits without causing damage. They bend over. It’s flexible rubber. They do that so people making mistakes don’t cause damage.
That looked like a turning guide but then ended. I’d have been confused too. I’d have backed out tho!
Point is, this wasn’t dangerous or damaging. If you consider that not a small mistake, what would a small mistake be?

Who would use those Nazitaxis in first place? I guess a lot of people just don’t care.

Tech-pilled people that naively believe whatever they read, especially in previously believable sources of “news” that have since sold out.
