    For the average person to reassume the cognitive load of driving and awareness of what’s around then moving at highway speeds? I don’t think 40 seconds is a stretch at all.
    Also, the smug self-assurance of a Tesla owner does little more than reveal just why people feel the way they do about this kind of person. So certain in the technology and other Tesla owners that concerns over the bicycle rider or the pedestrian become little more than background noise.

      You really have no idea what your talking about thinking it takes 40s.

      Parent comment described it accurately.

        Sure and you have no reason to lie to yourself about the reality of your purchase. Why can no one can devise a well run study to split the difference? Oh well, guess we’ll just have to stick to our base assumptions.
