> No, not really. If you're comparing to planes, they have automated systems that will almost always keep them at a completely different altitude to avoid potential collisions. Autopilot in VNAV/LNAV modes does not do this, it follows a programmed flight path. TCAS is the anti-collision system, but it's a secondary system that only gives information to the pilot. It's up to the pilot to make inputs to avoid a collision. Pilots are the primary anti-collision system - by using their eyeballs to look for other aircraft when flying under visual flight rules (VFR) and also following clearances/information from controllers when flying under instrument flight rules (IFR). > Plane pilots have to pay very little attention with autopilot on compared to Tesla drivers with Autopilot on. This is not correct at all.
