Wow! Really?! That sounds like one hell of a lie on Tesla's part... cynical part of me wonders if they deliberately avoided trying to detect hands for liability reasons?
- reubenswartz 7y agoHands on wheel doesn't really mean anything. You could be asleep. Applying a slight torque to the wheel or nudging one of the buttons requires conscious action, unless you deliberately hack it. (from this thread it sounds like there are some tricks that work, if you don't particularly value your life or the lives of others on the road.) That said, Tesla's PR often seems misleading at best.
- de_watcher 7y agoYea, they should give you the Valve Index controllers instead of the wheel to be absolutely sure.
