I've driven through the Devil's Slide area in a car, and that is one the most frightening stretches of two lane road I've ever traveled. Prior to the Tom Lantos tunnel, the drive to/from Pacifica on that stretch of road was just completely insane.

It’s this kind of thing that causes some people to take Tesla’s side by default in discussions here soon after crashes. It’s not “Elon worship”, it’s Bayesian statistics…

Yesterday, there were people here blaming “Tesla brakes are too small”. Turns out that… wasn’t a factor.

Yet I don't see any "Tesla saves wife and children from being murdered" stories in the headlines today...
