Abstract

ntoxicated because they own and operate a Tesla? Many will be ready to take a chance and go their Tesla home drunk. Will Tesla become a modern-day Pandora's Box? I don't know where this will lead us. Maybe the Full Self-Driving Mode is that good. And no intervention is needed. But what if it isn't? How can we prevent this from happening? Or will more people be willing to risk their lives and others around them by putting their faith in technology while intoxicated? Currently, one person dies every forty-five minutes as a result of alcohol-related traffic accidents.</p><p id="d229">Your membership fee gives you unlimited access to beautiful articles on Medium.

I can read your mind. You are saying, "What are you trying to say? Are you Mad?". But hear me out. For some, Tesla may be Ace lurking up the sleeve of a nefarious card player and pulling the string or gaming the system. I wouldn't say I like it either. I'll be brief, and I'll get to the point.

Tesla may be a false sense of security for that rare individual who thinks they can drink and drive. Will the Tesla car be the way for a drunk driver to go himself home? Switch on the Full self-driving mode, sit behind the wheel, and go home intoxicated. No one is talking about it. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Commission, 30% of all traffic fatalities in 2020 resulted from being impaired by alcohol. Will people be more willing to drive intoxicated because they own and operate a Tesla? Many will be ready to take a chance and go their Tesla home drunk. Will Tesla become a modern-day Pandora's Box? I don't know where this will lead us. Maybe the Full Self-Driving Mode is that good. And no intervention is needed. But what if it isn't? How can we prevent this from happening? Or will more people be willing to risk their lives and others around them by putting their faith in technology while intoxicated? Currently, one person dies every forty-five minutes as a result of alcohol-related traffic accidents.
