At 93, she got a self-driving Tesla so she can keep her independence, and also get to church

this is the kind of tech that actually matters. at 93 the car isnt about speed, its about not having to ask someone for a ride every sunday. independence is a big deal at any age

That’s one of the best things @Tesla can offer technology that gives people their independence back.❤️ I hope more countries get access to these features soon, and other EV makers start bringing similar capabilities to their cars too.🙌🏼

Absolutely love how Tesla can deliver this for our elderly…and anyone with difficulties

My mom needs this but we don't have Tesla in South Africa.

Would you want your grandmother to ride in one of these??

If she is not able to drive without self-driving, this is illegal and she is endangering all others on the street No, this is not getting her independence back, this is playing lottery with her and other lives I have nothing against this technology, but about people hyping it

@grok in the last six years how many accidents were caused by a self driving tesla with no other drivers at fault?

Thank you, @Tesla 🇺🇸

I mean, yeah, get to fuckin' church, 'n whatnot, oh boy ...

Independence at 93...... What she was doing till now ....."🤔"

Socializing and doing chores is very important for this age group

But does she remember where she wants to go?

93 and out here driving better than half the people on the road honestly

So nice 👏👏🙂

EVs are perfect for the handicapped or anyone feeling challenged by driving. It should be their target audience, but I mostly see them marketed as a way for healthy, alert and oriented drivers to get around. I love driving and I hate being a passenger. Gonna drive till I can’t.

Exactly the best user case. Now we need it to transport kids and disabled... then it's super powerfull and meaningful. Most other able bodies can get around in numerous other ways.

At 93, what's her reaction time should the self-driving car falter?

That's the kind of freedom money can't buy

I guess that's one of the advantages of owning a tesla

Tesla and Neuralink are helping humanity retain its autonomy.

I'm explaining to my kids that "When you become adult, you can get a car or use a robo-taxi service. We don't have them yet, but they'll be like this." Not go to church though, Americans are weird.

This is the use case people forget Self driving is not about lazy drivers it is about independence for people who cannot drive anymore

Tesla doesn't offer unsupervised self-driving. And honestly, if someone isn't feeling up to driving themselves, they probably shouldn't be using supervised Full Self-Driving either. It's just too risky for them and everyone else on the road.

Should I learn to drive in the future?

Autonomy at 93 hits different. XPeng has similar tech in China, proof self-driving independence is a global push.

"Self Driving Tesla" "Independence" "Church"

Loving it

That would be a whole expanded market for Tesla; vehicles specified for disabled and elderly. Give a discount @tesla !

Yeah, because Uber wasn't just as effective at a fraction of the cost.

I love this so much

Church has told her they'll have someone pick her up from now on.

Independence at ninety three with a robot as the chauffeur, that is the first honest use of self driving. Would you let your own mother in it?

church parking lot is the real edge case

Will she need to pass a driving test?
