" On a quiet street in the Mueller neighborhood of Austin Thursday, Tesla’s full self driving mode was put to the test — would it stop for the stop signs on a school bus and avoid hitting children crossing the road?"
"Though the test was completed with child-sized manikins as opposed to real children, the Tesla failed the test all six times. It blew through school bus stop signs at full speed, running over the manikins and driving off — completing a hit-and-run."
