back to article Taylor drift: Finally, a use for AI emerges? Cyber-smut star films fsck-flick in Tesla with Autopilot, warns: 'I wouldn't recommend it'

      A young couple was killed in a freak car accident in Chieti this weekend. Germano and Franciska were discovered almost completely naked, and investigators assume they were having sex in their small Italian vehicle while it raced along Abruzzan roads at upwards of 80mph. Italian youngsters commonly use their cars for romantic trysts when parents forbid sex before marriage. But it is a mystery why this pair chose sex in a car travelling at high speeds over country roads. Germano lost control of the car in a bend, and the 27-year old man and his 20-year-old paramour were killed by the impact.

      In Blighty several drivers (particularly bikers from the cases I remember) have been done for speeding / dangerous driving for posting online videos of themselves being so dangerously stupid.

      There was a thing a few years ago of posting Youtube videos of yourself doing stupid speeds on public roads. Often at night as you can't do 150mph on the M25 normally...

      Anyway PC Plod was using the self-published evidence in court. As this is clear evidence of dangerous driving (don't know what the equivalent US offence would be), and the identity of the offenders is pretty clear as well - I'd expect them to get a visit from the boys in blue if this hit the headlines over here. Would that be as likely in the US?
