NHTSA opens investigation over Tesla’s touch-screen gaming feature l ABC News

1. i think they shouldn't do this

2. I once saw someone reading a kingle e-book while cruising at 70 mph on the highway. Is NHTSA investigating this? How about people watching videos on their phones? 🤦🏾‍♂️

3. Very easy fix. Make the device not work if it recognizes no extra weight in the other seats. Same as the airbag deployment system does… 👍🐕🙂

4. This is a really good video to keep you really informed on how your TSLA stocks are going that's if you've got any, but from the way things are progressing I still think we'd make more profits investing in crypto currency

5. I’m pretty sure either way Tesla can design around this.

6. DISLIKE

7. What idiot thought it would be a great idea not adding a disable feature so people don't play games while driving?

8. It’s possible

9. How many of those 3000 distracted driving deaths were in Teslas? Are the other 30 manufactures out back there waiting to sit a fat lady and her 7 kids in there with chicken nuggets in their fat faces while they sing old town road and play candy crush on 10 diff screens.

10. Is this a joke? I have a 2008 Tahoe and my iPad mounted to the dash. Stop wasting time and money with this nonsense and invest it in things like Tesla, better roads, safer cars, better drivers, Elon musk.

11. Lol seriously? There’s hundreds of other things the driver/passenger could be doing that would result in an accident and are more common.

12. ABC Fake News – NOPE, Tesla is already 10x safer than ANY other system is a PRODUCTION car.

13. What a non story.

14. Most Tesla owners are too busy focusing on improving their Safety Score to bother playing games. Most didn't even know this was possible. If you wreck your car because you're playing games (on your phone or Tesla screen) while you're driving, that's clearly the driver's fault.

15. You have to be a special kind of stupid to play a video game while operating a vehicle.

16. I used to believe that Elon Musk excelled in critical thinking. Not at all now.
    Putting something in front of a driver that is purposely meant to distract attention away from driving is completely ridiculous.
    To say that it's meant for passengers is a non-thinking excuse for it since if a passenger were to be the only one actually using it there could still be a significant amount of visual and mental distraction since it is obvious to presume that the drivers attention would still be drawn to the passengers game progression either by encouragement or just plain curiosity.
    I like to try and give benefit of the doubt when I can but this whole idea is moronic. Texting while driving seems far less distracting compared to this.

17. This shouldn’t be in a car. Maybe the BACK seats or something else. Not where the driver can access it. Temptation is in all of us.

18. Let’s go Brandon!!!

19. Shout out to George Floyd on 576 days of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals!!!

20. Should have a camera/sensor that tells the car not to allow video games to be played if the driver is the only occupant of the vehicle while the vehicle is rolling.

21. Surprise. There are such cars in the land of freedom. From Japan.

22. Common sense. You have to acknowledge you’re a passenger…

23. Accidents take only a second of distraction. And the driver of a self-drive vehicle claiming that they're a passenger to be able to play… Reminds of the folks busted for being asleep or in the back seat while the vehicle operates. Also, this incident:
    "Video shows moments before Uber self-driving car hits pedestrian" — euronews (2018-MAR-21)

24. 3000? I smell bullshit

25. This game shouldn't be installed in vehicles. People will now be distracted by their phone, people in the vehicle and other distractions.
    Add: weather, road conditions, road construction, traffic, accidents and pedestrians.

26. Thats like saying phones should be banned in cars because the driver might go on them whilst driving

27. oops is this medias new target?

28. It well says "passenger play" if the driver wrecks while playing then that's on him, not Tesla.

29. really your worried and putting a full investigation on this feature instead of alcohol is being sold left and right killing people at crazy high statistics

30. People need to be Held accountable for their own stupid choices, These days they blame Things and devices for peoples actions…

31. Ya'll could chill with the danger music LMAO and you wonder why people hate big media..

32. if joe is staying after the audits im leaving the country and moving to colorado to climb the tallest mountain which is 2 light years above sea level where slo jo cant tell me what to do rather then live under socialism and sloppy joes
