Is the Tesla Model S Pedal Placement A Safety Hazard?
cartechboy (2660665) writes "When things go wrong with the Tesla Model S electric car, its very loyal--and opinionated--owners usually speak up. And that's just what David Noland has done. An incident in which his Model S didn't stop when he pressed the brake pedal scared him--and got him investigating. He measured pedal spacing on 22 different new cars at dealers--and his analysis suggests that the Tesla pedal setup may be causing what aviation analysts call a 'design-induced pilot error'. And pedal design, as Toyota just learned to the tune of $1.2 billion, is very important indeed in preventing accidents."
He's holding it wrong.
SJW's don't eliminate discrimination. They just expropriate it for themselves.
O agree, and on an unrelated note, O would loke the standard QWERTY keybaord redesogned so that the letters O "eye" and O "Oh" are not placed so close together. Thor current placement causes me far too many typong errors
