- ffggvv 5y agodo other manufactures call it full self driving and let you easily trick it while you sleep in the back seat?
- minhazm 5y agoEveryone says this but it’s not actually true in practice. Most of the other manufacturers systems are meant more as an emergency type feature rather than convenience. For example the Subaru system when it comes to a stop in traffic requires you to hit the accelerator to tell the car to start going again. Other systems have similar issues with usability that actually make it such that most people with the cars don’t use these features at all.

- nradov 5y agoI think that feature was only just added to 2021 model year Subarus. I have a 2019 and after coming to a complete stop it definitely requires the driver to press the accelerator to start moving again.
