I'm not sure what you mean. I was dangerous to myself, yes. So then the car pulled over and started to gradually stop on the shoulder. And then it would not let me re-enable the autopilot because I couldn't be trusted.
Not sure where endangering other people comes in. If there was someone standing on the shoulder of the highway it would avoid them obviously.
- throwawayboise 6y agoCars on the side of the road, or slowing down for no apparent reason, are a hazard to other traffic.
- zaroth 6y agoIt stops applying power to the wheels automatically if you unbuckle or lift yourself off the seat, once AutoPilot goes into the “Take over immediately” state. Of course the human who is actually driving can re-apply power at any time. The car will not pull over unless you leave it in the full-on alarm state for a significant amount of time. The alarm is pretty loud. It’s not a state a driver would leave the car in unless they were incapacitated or doing it intentionally.

- jacquesm 6y agoNot having this feature in the first place. Either that, or do it right.
- NoPicklez 6y agoSo what's a better alternative? Autopilot continuing to drive with the driver's seat belt unbuckled, or have the car slow down slowly to a stop? Breaking hard for no apparent reason is dangerous, slowing down slowly to a stop is not.
