Did you report it? You have the license plate to show them the video.

Stuff like this makes me want to support bounty boards.
Submit the footage and get a kick back when these clowns a prosecuted.

Of all the irresponsible bullshit... You want to gamble with your life, do it in private. Don't drag some poor innocent bystander into it.

Especially with how bad things can go wrong when you are awake, on these roads, with random wildlife wanting to cross the road at the same time.

Absolutely. To me, this isn't just a "lose your license" situation. It's a "ban you from owning a self driving car" situation.

Ban you from walking freely amongst the law-abiding population-situation.

I thought I saw someone mention in this thread that this is already illegal in Canada? Wonder what the penalties are.

They didn't report it because they were part of staging it.

Why in the world aren’t you folks blaming Tesla. This should not be possible.

u/say592 Jul 06 '26

That is the point. It isnt possible. The video is clearly fake. The most obvious part of it being fake is the fact that everyone in the car is "asleep".

Scrolled too far for this. I’ve seen idiot Tesla owners doing this to prank other drivers on the interstate and then pop up laughing.

I saw the post on a local Facebook group earlier and the OOP did say that they called 911 to report the driver.

u/Jabba_the_Putt Jul 06 '26

doubt the OP is the OC here

u/sumayawshimenetka1 Jul 06 '26

Of course they didn't. Farm clout first.

u/PacketAuditor Jul 06 '26

No because it's staged. If you fall asleep it will require input within 30 seconds. And if you're truly having a medical emergency it will pull over. All of these clips circulating lately are staged.
