Ever felt compelled to find out if your car’s safety features work as advertised?

Some absolute genius thought it would be a great idea to try out his Tesla’s Autopilot Emergency Braking system by driving straight at his own wife.

Maybe he thought he could nab “Husband of the Year” award at the same time that way.

The video of the experiment, uploaded to YouTube by a user named KrisXstream, starts with him simply driving along in his Tesla Model S.

As he gets up to about 30 km/h, his wife walks directly in front of the car, something we’re not sure we would do even if we were offered a considerable sum of money.

The first test is a success(?) but only just barely. The Model S stops just before hitting the woman. A human would have stopped way before Autopilot did, but nevertheless, it did come to a hard stop before hitting her.

Not content with that, KrisXstream attempts to run over his wife once more, and almost succeeds this time. From the looks of it, the Autopilot didn’t even try to brake. At 20 km/h, he had to manually brake before coming dangerously close to hitting her.

The video has since been deleted – though enthusiast blog Jalopnik has a thorough rundown of what it looked like – probably because the uploader was embarrassed he almost turned his wife into his ex-wife via Tesla collision.

Honestly, this stupid experiment might be enough to make her think of becoming his ex-wife, as well.

KrisXstream says in the video the system didn’t work because his wife was going “too slow.” Yeah, this is all her fault, you dingus.

Please don’t try this at home. Autopilot is just barely getting off the ground, and we don’t need a bunch of flesh-and-blood crash-test dummies attempting to confirm the system’s function. Furthermore, Tesla itself warns the system is not meant to prevent a collision, only to at best minimize one.
