Automatic Emergency Braking and Tesla continues to disappoint

NHTSA has finally released a rule for Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB). We've been asking for one since 2015 so... 3 cheers for NHTSA? But the rules don't go into effect until 2029. Ugh. On the plus side IIHS updated their AEB tests and car makers have a lot of work to do. We dive deep into AEB. And will 2024 be the year of the Tesla lawsuits? Maybe they shouldn't sell things with aspirational names like Autopilot when they keep crashing and killing people? Ford Blue Cruise is under investigation, Waymo says the bad driving of it's robotaxi was on purpose and we cover the latest recalls.This weeks links:https://www.autosafety.org/support-us/https://www.autosafety.org/av-bill-of-rights/https://www.iihs.org/news/detail/few-small-suvs-excel-in-new-iihs-front-crash-prevention-testhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywyCTIsNYis&t=3shttps://apnews.com/article/ford-blue-cruise-crash-investigation-deaths-4429651e132e3702a6a2a6a127aebbc2https://jalopnik.com/new-california-law-hopes-to-stop-robotaxis-from-dodging-1851447318https://futurism.com/self-driving-waymo-wrong-side-streethttps://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/federal-agency-investigates-effectiveness-of-recall-of-teslas-autopilot-systemhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/tesla-s-autopilot-and-full-self-driving-linked-to-hundreds-of-crashes-dozens-of-deaths/ar-AA1nIyP0https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/04/28/tesla-trial-autopilot-lawsuit/https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2024/RCLRPT-24V282-3386.PDFhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2024/RCLRPT-24V288-7983.PDFhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/inv/2024/INOA-PE24011-11699.pdf
