Mark Rober just set up one of the most interesting self-driving tests of 2025, and he did it by imitating Looney Tunes. The former NASA engineer and current YouTube mad scientist recreated the classic gag where Wile E. Coyote paints a tunnel onto a wall to fool the Road Runner.

Only this time, the test subject wasn’t a cartoon bird… it was a self-driving Tesla Model Y.

The result? A full-speed, 40 MPH impact straight into the wall. Watch the video and tell us what you think!

    yeah, only way it could have happened; has to be the victim’s fault because they totally always respect crosswalks.

    how much do they pay you?

        You’re right; I was dressed kinda slutty at least one of those times, so yeah, maybe it was my fault. how about what you’re leaving out? how much do they pay you? you’re all over these responses with similar lines.
