Tesla already has a lot of problems on their plate, and a new one was just added to them. While there is a certain category of people who actually enjoy driving Tesla, there are other groups that absolutely hate it, especially because of Elon Musk. It would be justified if the hate increased just a little bit after a Tesla tried to drown its owner and his friend. The clueless Georgia duo were having fun driving around and had a spontaneous idea. They decided to put the car in self-driving mode and see where it would end up taking them. Let’s just say they were definitely surprised when they found out the destination.
In a video the Georgia friends took, you see them turning on the self-driving mode and laughing as they observe the car’s movements. In what was quite a surprise, their Tesla started driving them right toward a body of water. It doesn’t stop driving, and you might think that they put the lake as a destination to gain likes, but this wasn’t the case. It was clear in the video that they didn’t do that. They were better than I was, though, because instead of being scared that they were going to drown, they kept laughing. The owner’s friend mentioned that the car didn’t stop going toward the water until her friend took control and hit the brakes. Thankfully, he did that at the right moment because they were so close to getting into the water.
People Reacting to the Georgia Friends’ Video
Many people were definitely surprised by what the Georgia Tesla did. After all, you never imagine that self-driving mode would get you into the water and possibly cause you to drown. Since Musk doesn’t have a lot of fans, one person joked and said, “Elon was tryna take y’all out.” Someone else found it strange that the car even did this. “Odd, it clearly show it knows the road ends there on the map,” they wrote. Well, Elon might owe them an explanation. There was one person who showed their dislikes toward Tesla as they said, “how do people feel safe in a car that is driving itself?” I hope that the Georgia duo won’t trust the self-driving mode in the future. They got lucky this time.
The comments took a dark turn quickly as one Netizen advised, “there was a woman who died because her tesla locked her inside when she ended up in a body of water. Please be careful!” Now that’s enough to scare anyone. On the other hand, the Elon hate kept coming in, which isn’t that bad. “That’s why we don’t buy things from that man,” one person wrote. Someone else had to joke as they said, “don’t worry Elon said all tesla have boat mode included.” A third person also added, “The car realized who its creator is and decided to unalive itself.” Aside from Elon and his haters, it’s a good thing that the Georgia friends were safe.
