It’s not that I don’t believe that his car couldn’t detect an oncoming car- my four year old Honda does that easily on a regular basis. I simply don’t believe that videos like this aren’t staged anymore to push a particular story by people who are Tesla enthusiasts/cultists.
There have just been one too many questionable videos trying to promote FSD as far better than I know it is on Twitter. Apart from the desire to promote Tesla it has the added benefit of getting instant engagement because it presents a potentially dangerous situation on video.
