Where One Tesla Goes ... The Other Goes Back

Elon Musk has confirmed in his Twitter account that from next year the Tesla will be able to travel a parking lot until finding an empty place and parking, all without the need for the driver to be on board the vehicle.The executive responded to a curious tweet from a person moving his car from a distance, because in his city it is forbidden to keep a car in the same place for more than two hours. It was because of this situation that Musk took the public's attention to reveal the novelty.Unfortunately we do not have a specific date for the update. There is also the possibility that some obstacles may arise in development and it will be delayed, as has already happened in previous occasions with other functions. However, it does not stop to delude the fact to see independent vehicles looking for its parking place. The time saved can be significant, especially in crowded places.
At present, the company's vehicles can already be parked automatically, but the driver is responsible for finding a place available. Tesla has been anticipating this system for several years. In 2016, they shared a demonstration of a vehicle looking for parking after leaving the driver at the Tesla facility. You can see it in the next video from the minute 2:30.This possibility is an important step on the road to achieving a 100% autonomous vehicle. The previous week, Tesla updated the Autopilot to improve its driving abilities. The "Navigate" system will be able to perform all kinds of maneuvers on motorways, excluding the changes of lane that will continue to be borne by the driver.Earlier in the day we let you know that Waymo got permission to try their cars without a driver in California. There will be three dozen cars that will be circulating in various parts of Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills and Palo Alto. Sure, they'll have a speed limit. No car can exceed 104.6 kilometers per hour. Companies continue to make great strides in conquering a market that eagerly awaits the 100% autonomous car.
