[@KristoferOlsson]

Now people understand why we have used the moose test in Sweden since late 70s.

[@user-jh6vt8vx4v]

Maybe better light scatter patern and reduce speed will help more than relys on the car wont flip. Breaking is always prefered over swervering on public road.

[@tiro2041]

Only Saab did the moose test… now that Saab is gone nobody does that…

[@sweetbon76]

BMW iX passed the test.

[@tiro2041]

@@sweetbon76 well the test is to actually hit the moose and make sure the a-pillars dont collapse and kill everyone inside…

[@MrDraedd]

@@nilsen39 no reaction from the car. No steering, no breaking and no beeping. Nothing!

[@Lascarnn]

This is why people should not rely on autopilot alone, yet.

[@Wasabi9111]

Very impressive reflexes! I had to rewatch the clip several times and I still didn’t see the moose until after bjorn swerved out of the way.

[@Cognoscibilitate]

21:39 is what you are here for! Good job avoiding, Bjorn! Congratulations!

[@Raaaphael]

That was an awesome maneuver! ESP saved the day too!

[@qqq9542]

God bless you sir.

[@_Marthinzen]

Wow! That was crazy, great driving. This beats 99% of all the "i almost died" click bait out there. That moose got its ass smacked :D

[@randomsurfer3963]

The one time you could have used a clickbaity title, you did not, hats off to you Bjorn... good stuff!

[@carlomorischi3435]

I think he should do a separate clickbait video

[@UndefeatedDeity]

Right? Click bait title, orgasm face, bright background, false claim (e.g. “I nearly died!!”)

[@koomaj]

100%

[@Dutchforces1]

I think he should do that because he deserves the views.

[@randomsurfer3963]

So funny..Bjorn now changed it to a click bait style title after an overwhelming response haha good :))

[@hape4]

This was a Guinness world record in reaction time. In the middle of the night driving so many km’s I guess some of us (at least me) would have crashed into the moose or at least into the railing. Luckily no one was hurt. And the car is nice for sure!

[@antiik]

"I almost died" is no exaggeration. Several hundred kilograms of weight high on stilts means that the body mass is most likely going on the windshield right where your head is. So many people have died from moose crashes. Phew... thank the stars you are ok!

[@Has7DCT]

I remember when there's a Buffalo in the middle of the road and how my VW Polo swerved to the opposite lane. Literally spun out of the road and the front bumper ate grass and dirt!

[@anthonyc8499]

Holy crap, that was incredibly scary!! Ghost moose just standing right in the middle of the freeway. Kudos to Bjorn for lightning reflexes and keeping calm!

[@M_Andras]

@@larsradtke4097 das Auto der BMW, der Mercedes, der Volkswagen... End of language course.

[@pepstein]

That was a nearly perfect reaction. Just enough swerve to avoid the moose, followed by an equal and opposite input to keep the car on the road. Could have easily had a very different outcome. Congratulations - you passed the moose test!

[@OFFL1NX]

My man was eating his meal in the middle of the night driving on high way, not expecting anything to happen and he avoids the crash with insane reflexes. You got some skills dude.

[@TheBOlufsen]

Dodging that moose like a freaking ninja!🥷

[@alexxela754]

The slow automatic high beam is definitely a risk. Good example of that. Grate reflexes though.

[@kasmopaya2676]

First thing I deactivated on a Model 3 SR+. Way to slow.

[@oleost]

Yeah I don’t understand why they don’t turn on faster. If the car is supposed to be able to nearly do FSD the vision system should be able to know when the car is besides you..

[@BizzMRK]

@@oleost especially considering that it should be pretty obvious for the cameras when there are bright headlights from oncoming traffic shining at your car.

[@JavonAnonimni]

@@oleost AFAIK BMW doen't turn on high beams if you are driving through a settlement, there's oncoming traffic or if the road is lit up with street lights. The last one was exactly what happened in the Moose situation. Because in my country which has similar traffic rules as Germany, you shouldn't have high beams in those situations and I think you never should have high beams on a highway anyway. But the last rule might be more suited for non-adaptive headlights.

[@matimac91]

@@kasmopaya2676 The same here, I live in an area where roads are not illuminated at night and it is really dangerous to wait 1-2 seconds to the high beam to turn on. I feel much safer using manual headlights.

[@eddie8742]

That was really close, happy to see you came out of that one with just a small scratch. I'm always worried about these freaking moose to show up on the side of the road, but now I see I gotta keep an eye on the road as well. Again, happy you didn't end up with the moose as a passenger :)

[@apicharjiratanan4285]

I hate to say that Volvo will just break like a badassoutofhell, (sorry but is true) but luckily for me I put em brembo breaks on; with out it moose will definitely fly. But I am also impressed by near emergency breaking without that electronic assistance, I'd gotten into a collision in the shopping mall with an ignorant driver.

[@lone_wolf_XIII]

Man, it could have gone really bad really fast. Glad Bjorn and the Moose is ok!

[@aussie2uGA]

@@apicharjiratanan4285 Remember Tesla uses Brembo brakes and everyone criticizes them for poor performance.

[@fjalics]

I never hit one, but I know they are all kinds of trouble, cause they are so tall, and heavy. I think your crumple zone takes out the leggs, and the body comes through the windshield.

[@sweetbon76]

@@fjalics if you hit it up front it could go through the windscreen. If possible you should aim for the back (as Björn did, like a pro!), since it's lighter and also moose always runs forwards.

[@tymanot]

Man, the moose was indeed a very scary and close call. Glad everyone is OK. Nice car. Except the outside...

[@aukanmeister]

Lol😄 Beaver face is terrible.

[@lo_durr]

Pilot Björn managed miraculously to avoid moose hit! Happy to see all unharmed.

[@wasabiworthington6352]

That was so close! Good driving. I am amazed how quickly you decided to go left. Hey friend, you just gained a whole new level of respect from us followers. So glad you are OK.

[@M_Andras]

Actually it was the wrong decision to swerve to the left, because on the right he had more space, but considering the moose moved to the right at the beginning, It would have been the right decision to go left if the animal continued to the right. So it is ok that he went to left, there is not much time to think about those decisions in situations like this.

[@hartfischer5509]

Great reaction to avoid the moose. You did a total lane change to make that happen. Incredible.

[@guseks8413]

Im so glad you are okay Björn. Two years ago I crashed with an elk here in Sweden and it deleted my volvo. The tow man said if I had been in a weaker built car I would be dead. Im so thankfull I was alone in the car that night. I walked out without a scratch. Also this is the reason I never use automatic high beam. It cant be trusted.

[@NO3V]

Ever the positive Bjørn - gotta love him. "At least they show you [the wrong data!]. Many other cars don't even show you with how many percent you will arrive with!"

[@ZleFox]

there is room for improvement of the estimates when they get enough data. I am more puzzled about the other software bugs and the lack of EM shielding on some components

[@NO3V]

@@ZleFox I am not puzzled. It's German.. (I used to be a German software developer, I am allowed to say that. ;-) )

What would have happened if Björn tests diesel cars with of course 1000+ Km per lag.

I think you should add the "moose avoidance" test to all your car tests to be able to compare :p

That is strange: no collision warning or emergency breaking. For what do they build radar into those cars? Besides that I am happy that no one was harmed. Also: thats a great example how a speed limit saved at least the life of the moose.

[@Zedus-rl9hp]

@@michah1896 The systems are just not designed for it. The performance of most systems is just enough to recognize vehicles and people. Sometimes they respond, sometimes not at all. You can't rely on them at the moment.

[@BizzMRK]

@@michah1896 the radar is exclusively designed to detect very dense objects like cars. Radar would not be able to detect objects like cardboard cutouts, small plastic pylons, children, while adults or animals are very hit and miss and highly dependant on the crosssection they present. Pedestrian warning systems are usually lidar (which this car does not have), camera and/or ultrasonic based systems because of their much higher resolution and reliability with smaller and less denser objects .
