Document: Trump's transition team seeks to repeal a crash-reporting rule opposed by Tesla and other car makers and “liberalize” autonomous vehicle regulation

#DOGE #musk  —  www.reuters.com/business/aut... @lorifontanes : just like pregnancy health outcomes & gun violence, data on #selfdriving #car crashes shouldn't be suppressed & is essential to #PublicHealth & #PublicSafety  —  www.reuters.com/business/aut... @barbisblue : So how unreal is this??  Musk doesn't want it reported when one of his self driving cars has a crash.  So he's the richest man in the world and wants all the rules bent in his favor.  Will anybody wake up and just say “no”?  We have to put up with the orange rump and this meathead too?  Grrrrr...... Mark Chadbourn / @chadbourn : Musk gets his first payback from Trump. Mastodon: Dare Obasanjo / @carnage4life@mas.to : There is already data that shows Teslas have twice the number of deaths per fatal crash rate than the average car.  This counters the argument that all that self driving tech makes their cars safer.  —  Now it looks like we will soon have less visibility into crash rates from self driving cars going forward. … Ann Lipton / @annmlipton@esq.social : To be fair, Musk is absolutely fulfilling his fiduciary duties to shareholders  —  https://www.reuters.com/... Dave Rahardja / @drahardja@sfba.social : You'd think that if Teslas with FSD were actually “safer than humans” as Elon claimed, they'd WANT to report crashes to prove the point.  —  “Exclusive: Trump transition recommends scrapping car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Tesla”  —  #tesla #elon #fsd  —  https://www.reuters.com/... Randahl Fink / @randahl@mastodon.social : To everyone finding car safety important, I have some good news and some bad news:  —  40 out of 45 fatal crashes reported to the NHTSA this year were caused by Teslas, but the good news is, this is now being addressed.  —  The bad news is, the Trump administration will solve this... by removing the [quote:] “excessive reporting” of car accidents. … AkaSci / @AkaSci@fosstodon.org : It's Friday the 13th.  —  Here is a preview of some of the nightmares that will visit us every day for the next 4 years, as the Hyenas take over the land.  —  Trump transition recommends scrapping car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Tesla.  —  Why fix bugs when you can simply hide them? … Threads: Dan O'Dowd / @realdanodowd : Elon Musk's regulatory capture of NHTSA means the only government crash data the public has on Tesla's defective self-driving software might be coming to an end.  NHTSA will be utterly hamstrung without this data, which had led to 10 investigations and nine safety recalls. Matt Rodriguez / @mattballislife05 : Trump wants that or Elon wants that? X: Michael Guimarin / @michaelguimarin : Saw this coming a mile away. The data collection methodology for evaluating autonomous cars is flawed because autonomous cars failure model is different from human driven cars.
