The crazier and stupier shit was that part of his justification was that "people drive and they only have eyes. We should be able to do the same."
Its a stunningly idiotic justification, and yet here we are with millions of these "eyes only" teslas on the road.
That's terrifying for showing how little he understands about the problem he is attempting to solve.
Humans use up to four senses at times to accomplish the task of driving.
