It will nag you every 17 seconds (if not attentive/holding the wheel with a torque) and abort auto pilot completely if you do not comply.
If you do this three times in a drive you have to power off and on the car again to be able to use autopilot again.
I've done maybe 40.000 km on autopilot and it's very aggressive compared to my other car (ioniq electric) when it comes to attention.
The fact that some people purposely defeat this system with weights on the wheel is another matter.
But saying that tesla encourages you to not paying attention is not correct.
- jsight 5y agoTo be fair, the person you are responding to may not like those other systems either. All the articles with industry analysts insisting that other driver monitoring systems are nearly perfect have sometimes blinded me to that fact. A lot of people don't like any of these systems for a lot of the same reasons that people didn't like basic cruise control in the early days.
- ghaff 5y agoI haven't used basic cruise control in years. It's actually convenient not to have to pay attention to the speed but I find, on roads with even moderate traffic, it comes at the cost of prioritizing maintaining a constant speed rather than flowing with traffic and generally staying in a lane.
