I drove a friend's Model 3, and within five minutes of driving on autopilot it got confused at an intersection and tried to make a pretty sudden 'lane change' to the wrong side of a divided road.
Obviously that's a single anecdote, and I don't know if it would have gone through with it because I immediately corrected, but that was my experience.

The question is whether a system that absolutely requires that you pay attention going through intersections (which you should obviously do) is safer in aggregate than not having those features enabled at all in those situations. E.g. are weird lane changes that people don't catch happening more frequently than people zooming through red lights because they weren't paying attention. Only the data can show that, and Tesla should share it.
