hook and ladder truck was blocking traffic at a previous crash on an
interstate highway early on Saturday in Contra Costa County
just thinking out loud - if the tesla was driving at high speed around
a bend or on an incline or passing traffic that had stopped for the
crash - maybe it would not have time to stop if on autopilot
human drivers know that at an accident scene that some lanes might be
closed - so a change of lanes might be required - or a stop might be
required - a Tesla might not know this
if I was barreling down the high speed lane in an empty lane with no
other traffic - and could see all the traffic stopped in the 2 right
lanes - I would know that something was up - perhaps a Tesla is not
that smart
perhaps it is even simpler than that - I approach a curve in the high
speed lane at high speed - I see flares in the road - I slow down -
the tesla might not even see flares
