Come for the video of a Tesla Robotaxi driving double the speed limit and hitting speed bumps like they are Mario Kart ramps...

... But stay for the conversation about social media silos and corporate disinformation campaigns!

I've noticed that, too.

The speed signage is nice when the car picks it up, but I'd call mine 80% accurate. Imperfect, but fine for a driver assist, I know not to rely on it.

Crazy move to put it in a 99.9999%-accuracy-required design.

Google maps knows the speed limit of most roads, why can't that be used?

Not super reliable, one road near me is 25mph and google says it's 65mph.

Oh, well that answered that question. Get your shit together tech bros

Because the "Google thought so" approach is legally problematic.

Ah, that makes sense.
