It is well documented that Tesla regulary releases features which make wrong decisions and put drivers into dangerous situations. Last case happened literally 5 days ago and already well-documented by Tesla owners (and not some imaginary evil short-sellers):

It worth mentioning that this feature, called ELD, can't be disabled permanently and enables itself back again after each trip. Driver is expected to disable it manually each time. Also, this feature could kick in anytime, even when driver is actively steering!
So, maybe author was wrong when he mentioned his kid, but his point is essentially correct.
How is this behaviour OK on a public road -- "I made it half way into the shoulder and the emergency lane departure kicked in a yanked me back into the lane, almost hitting the car I was passing as I fought with the automatic steering"?
