And then you get something like the adaptive cruise control on my BMW.
The bloody thing controls like a human just learning to drive - only focusing on what's right in front of it, instead of the general road situation, and making correspondingly jerky and drastic (albeit safe) maneuvers.
I often have to look ahead for it, and turn it off when I see a situation brewing that will entice it to drive like a moron. Then I handle that situation (typically by doing essentially nothing, e.g. just coasting for a few seconds), and turn it back on.
