Camera vs LIDAR used in Tesla. Because it's cheaper?

Both have potential flaws to my understanding.
Software will never replace human instinct.

The Tesla advertising label "self driving" should have been shut down the very minute it was conceived:
-Wrong federal classification category.
-Accepts all liability onto the company. NOT. Read the fine print. Oh wait there's more.
-You the driver are still liable.
-Especially while sleeping or getting it on in the back seat.
-Never underestimate the power of stupid.
-Toyota Corporation was almost destroyed because of a few run-away Prius acceleration events. Blamed on floor mats. Not remote hacking. No sir. Never happened.
-And that story disappeared like it never existed.
-Tesla's seem to crash into immovable objects such as cop cars and ambulances on a regular basis. I've seen a dozen internet instances of that. All disappeared from the internet.

This new technology has been tested on public roads since day one.
