No idea about tesla, but how do you screw up hand detenction?
- sjm-lbm 8y agoIt's based off measuring torque on the steering column, not some sort of (say) heat or pressure sensors on the wheel itself. So, having your hands on the wheel and not moving them can be sensed by the Tesla as "not having your hands on the wheel".

- MBCook 8y agoIn my car (a Honda) I can have my hands on the wheel and if I’m not doi enough steering it will yell at me. There are one or two spots around town that are straight enough that I don’t need to give any steering input and it will sometimes flag me there even though my hands were on the wheel the whole time. On a freeway? Don’t think I’ve ever had thay happen though.
