the attitude in a lot of the comments there is bizarre... in most of the world i'd hope an accident caused by using these features is the drivers fault for switching them on and not 'driving with due care and attention' all of the stuff about it being "safe if" miss the core concept of what safety means if you take it seriously, which you always should when driving. safety and stability isn't something you get by ignoring edge cases, its about handling them so robustly you can't have problems. people who have never experienced problems can /maybe/ justify using these features... but what they say on the tin should be enough to not want to use them. giving beta features to regular consumers is fine. doing it when those features can cause injury or death is absolutely abhorrent behaviour that should be prosecuted. allowing software updates for something like this is pretty counter to safety practises too, and the QA process clearly has too many problems to be reliable... not that it should be relied upon anyway on the timescales involved here. too many of these tech companies 'pushing the limits' are doing so by ignoring the law, and it costs lives. when individuals do this they are fined and/or imprisoned, and rightly so. the idea that a company results in no accountability is not a failing of the law, but a failing of those whose duty it is to enforce it.
