Ive been driving for 25 years, cars, trucks, trailers, standard and auto transmissions, and I have never once thought to myself "I'd be such a better diver if I didn't have to pay attention to my speed, lane keeping or following distance" Why? Because those mundane things are already on autopilot in my brain.
Posts like yours are so absurd to met that I cant help but think shill.
- jedberg 5y agoI've been driving for 29 years, and I never thought those things either until I got autopilot (and I don't have a Tesla BTW, I have a different autopilot system). While those things were autopilot in my brain, they still took brain power. It's so much more relaxing not worrying about those things. It's like people who do math by hand and then get a calculator.
- spywaregorilla 5y agoMaybe you're a great driver then. Have you ever shared the road with someone who was a terrible driver?
- studentrob 5y agoYes. Those are people who think they can go hands free, use their phone or watch a movie while on autopilot.
- rrix2 5y agotheyre also likely the same type of folks who fall for marketing like "full self driving" without investigating critically or even reading through the analog and digital shrinkwrap they have to tear through to get to their date or appointment or whatever on time.
