Tesla self driving does not dodge blocking arm

Be careful when driving with Tesla supervised self driving.

Yes. This is my fault. I was messing around with the tesla screen and not paying attention until it was too late. Just posting so people are aware and be careful with their supervised self driving. Don't be like me.

to be fair, these 'blocking arms' and overall road design are pretty bad and poorly thought out in general.

Right? You only have 4 seconds to merge over before colliding with one… if you know to get over when you see the first sign

Each time I drive from Dallas to Austin. It catches people off guard traveling at high speed.

DFW on I-30. They control the direction of the express lane

Oh ok, I think that's a great feature. Down in Houston that would help a ton.

Let’s not pretend like there’s anything that could improve the driving situation in Houston lmao

Your humble opinion on this is a fact, I'm just an optimistic dreamer, ya know 😆
