The new systems are vastly improved over the ones from the last few years. I have a 4 year old one. They were explicit that you have to keep your hands up and on the wheel, but they still chose that vastly too suggestive name "autopilot". I want to see more explicit public testing, even though I own (an older) one. I want to see them test it with people walking on the side of the road, walking across the road, riding a bike on the side. Someone weaving or suddenly stepping in the road. Those are the things I want to be reassured about. My car is great at following roads with lines on them or just cars, if the lines peter out.
