Uber and Lyft drivers use Teslas as makeshift robotaxis, raising safety concerns
A self-driving Tesla carrying a passenger for Uber (UBER.N)
, opens new tab rammed into an SUV at an intersection in suburban Las Vegas in April, an accident that sparked new concerns that a growing stable of self-styled "robotaxis" is exploiting a regulatory gray area in U.S. cities, putting lives at risk.
Tesla (TSLA.O)
, opens new tab CEO Elon Musk aims to show off plans for a robotaxi, or self-driving car used for ride-hailing services, on Oct. 10, and he has long contemplated a Tesla-run taxi network of autonomous vehicles owned by individuals.
Do-it-yourself versions, however, are already proliferating, according to 11 ride-hail drivers who use Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) software. Many say the software, which costs $99 per month, has limitations, but that they use it because it helps reduce drivers' stress and therefore allows them to work longer hours and earn more money.
Reuters is first to report about the Las Vegas accident and a related inquiry by federal safety officials, and of the broad use by ride-hail drivers of Tesla autonomous software.
The Las Vegas Tesla driver, Justin Yoon, said on YouTube the Tesla software failed to slow his vehicle even after the SUV emerged from a blind spot created by another vehicle.
Yoon, who posts YouTube videos under the banner "Project Robotaxi," was in the driver's seat of his Tesla, hands off the wheel, when it entered the intersection in a suburban part of Las Vegas, according to footage from inside the car. The Tesla on FSD navigated the vehicle at 46 mph (74 kph) and did not initially register a sport-utility vehicle crossing the road in front of Yoon. At the last moment, Yoon took control and turned the car into a deflected hit, the footage shows.
"It's not perfect, it'll make mistakes, it will probably continue to make mistakes," Yoon said in a post-crash video. Yoon and his passenger suffered minor injuries and the car was totaled, he said.
Yoon discussed using FSD with Reuters before he publicly posted videos of the accident but did not respond to requests for comment afterward.

Sunspot AR3842 has shot off another X flare with possible CME toward earth. The earths magnetic field is going to be fairly disturbed if that sunspot continues to spit powerful flares and CMES earths direction. Right now its a bit early for Oct 10th but this is the second in 3 day period. It'll be funny if Tesla does a live event, as in shows its robotaxis working, and one of more of its robotaxis go out of control or even spontaneously combusts.
GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH (G3): A CME is heading for Earth following the powerful X7.1-class solar flare of Oct. 1st. A NOAA model predicts it will arrive on Oct. 4th, potentially causing a strong G3-class geomagnetic storm. The CME is quite faint and superficially wouldn't seem to pack the punch required for a strong storm. At this time of year, however, even weak CMEs can be effective due to the autumnal Russell-McPherron effect.
THE STRONGEST FLARE YET: Sunspot AR3842 exploded again today, producing the strongest solar flare of Solar Cycle 25 so far. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the X9.1-category blast:

Power line fire that wiped out power in SW Miami-Dade neighborhood apparently sparked after Tesla slams into pole
SOUTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - An overnight power pole fire that knocked out electricity to some homes in a Southwest Miami-Dade neighborhood for hours was apparently sparked by a driver who slammed into a power pole.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units responded to the scene of the blaze along Southwest 94th Street, bear 87th Avenue, early Sunday morning.
The fire ignited after a Tesla sedan smashed into the power pole at around 2 a.m., causing it to fall down and light up the brush surrounding it.
Cellphone video showed flames, as well as sparking from a downed power line in a tree.
Area resident Adrian Gonzalez said he woke up to the commotion.
“We just heard a screech and a crash, came out, and then this fire started happening,” he said. “It’s a little concerning, having seen all the flames.”
Another potential out of control Tesla. Its interesting how often Tesla owners go running after their car appears to go out of control.

Section 2 - The computer errors from outer space
(Elon Musk: Model S not a car but a ‘sophisticated computer on wheels’)
When computers go wrong, we tend to assume it's just some software hiccup, a bit of bad programming. But ionising radiation, including rays of protons blasted towards us by the sun, can also be the cause. These incidents, called single-event upsets, are rare and it can be impossible to be sure that cosmic rays were involved in a specific malfunction because they leave no trace behind them.
And yet they have been singled out as the possible culprits behind numerous extraordinary cases of computer failure. From a vote-counting machine that added thousands of non-existent votes to a candidate's tally, to a commercial airliner that suddenly dropped hundreds of feet mid-flight, injuring dozens of passengers
Plus, since giant ejections from the sun can sometimes send huge waves of particles towards Earth, what's called space weather, an unnerving prospect looms: we could see much more disruption to computers than we're used to during a massive geomagnetic storm in the future

Section 3 - Superseding and/or Intervening Force
Tesla argues it had no control in the crash and death which were "caused by a superseding and/or intervening force."
There you have it folks Tesla admits an outside force caused this Tesla to glitch and go out of control. That is true, its not Teslas fault, per se, that its vehicles go out of control. Its the destabilized electromagnetic environment we are experiencing as a result of the earths continued weakening of its magnetic field. While I do not disagree that this is an outside force causing its vehicles to go out of control, its precisely why computers on wheels (Teslas/EVs/computerized ICE) should not be on the roads. Because these vehicles will continue to go out of control and with more frequency putting the greater public in danger. EVs will continue to destroy lives whether through killing those involved, created long-term psychological damage, or leading to the incarceration of people who did nothing wrong other than drive an EV.
Also as Tesla is aware of the problem and does not warn the public its liable for everyone of its vehicles going out of control!

The exact cause of the Hutchison Effect is unknown in public spheres as it is classified under national security. However the most likely culprit seems to be a combination of electromagnetic sources coming together in a way to change the makeup of metals leading to their rusting, softening, fracturing, complete breaking, even dustification. Keep in mind the degree of metal materials that are within our buildings and infrastructure...even in concrete. Maybe this is why we are seeing an increase in building and bridge collapses?

GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH (G3): Fast-growing sunspot AR3842 erupted on Oct 1st (2220 UT), producing the second-strongest solar flare of Solar Cycle 25. The X7.1-category blast caused a shortwave radio blackout over Hawaii and hurled a faint halo CME into space. NOAA forecasters are predicting a strong G3-class geomagnetic storm when the CME arrives as early as Oct. 4th.
We need another one of these, with a little more oomph, around the 6-8th so it arrives around the 10th for Teslas hyped production event! Although sometimes faint CMEs cause more apparent issues than the ones that cause larger storms. Due to the Russel-McPherron Effect, things could be interesting regardless.

Fire at Tesla battery supplier factory – report
The company that supplies batteries to some of the biggest car makers in the world – including Tesla – has reported a fire at a plant in China.
A fire has broken out at a Chinese factory owned by the world's largest electric vehicle battery supplier, CATL.
While no injuries have been reported, CATL says a "relatively small" number of products were affected by the blaze – though impacts to its production line are expected to be limited, according to news outlet Reuters.
The company says the fire – located at its plant in the Fujian province – was extinguished relatively quickly, with the cause under investigation.
In June 2024, a fire at a lithium battery factory in South Korea claimed the lives of 23 workers and injured eight more – many of whom were Chinese nationals, Reuters reported.
Not caused by sea water!
https://www.drive.com.au/news/fire-at-tesla-battery-supplier-factory/
========================================
How does EMF cause lithium batteries to experience thermal runaway and thus spontaneously combust? One of two main ways:
#1 - Overcharge/Discharge
With various impressed external magnetic field intensities an effect was noticed on the charge and discharge curves as well as the charge and mass concentrations within the batteries. With the two-dimensional model starting from 0mT and going to 1mT had the effect of discharging the battery faster and charging the battery faster. With the two-dimensional model starting from 1mT and going to -1mT had the effect of charging the battery faster. In either case an effect on the various characteristics of the battery were studied. With the experiments conducted on the two types of batteries the effect was more profound than subtle. Discharge times were twice as fast and charge times were equally
affected. With the smaller batteries they all generally charged faster under the presence of a magnetic field due to more uniform penetration. In the presence of the field they also discharged faster. The larger batteries would not see the same uniform penetration because only a small area of the battery sees the center of the coil it is placed on
In this dissertation, they found that external magnetic fields significantly increased charge and discharge rates in individual lithium battery cells; like shown in the following image. They also found that smaller batteries were impacted to a greater degree than larger ones. This is likely a reason Tesla is switching to larger battery cells in addition to employing magnetic attenuating honeycomb sandwich battery pack.

#2 - Stimulation of Dendrite Growth
Thermoelectric current causes asymmetric growth pattern of dendrites.
thermoelectromagnetic convection occurs in the vicinity of the solid-liquid interface, and vortices are generated between dendritic arms. It is shown that the thermoelectromagnetic convection has a major influence on dendritic morphology.
