Tesla Model S - Dad Pranks His Son With Summon
Tesla Motors Fans  May 17, 2016
Dad pranked his son with a hidden Go Pro on the dash. He did not know they
added summon feature and the car can move without a driver !
]

The Tesla's Summon feature is now a well known feature of the electric car —
but not everyone is up to date on the car's autonomous mode, which makes
playing pranks that much easier.

In this case, the prank is played by a father on his son, who innocently
sits in the Tesla when it suddenly stirs to life and begins moving. The kid
is understandably panicky and even tries asking the car to stop. (Hey, would
you have grabbed the wheel at such a young age in that situation? Yeah,
right.)

The freak out only lasts a few seconds as the dad, who caught everything via
a hidden GoPro, shows up and stops the car while grinning at his son's robot
takeover panic. We don't advise anyone try this on their own family, but
this is video is a great peek into our collective societal transition from
expecting to manually control cars into the age of expecting cars to operate
on their own.
