Not really sure that should be a metric, given that Tesla Autopilot (which shipped, what, a decade ago?) still likes to ram into the back of parked emergency vehicles (a problem they have "acknowledged") and randomly brake heavily (a problem they haven't, but just hit up youtube and you can find dozens of examples of it doing it to varying degrees of severity.)

- MBCook 5y agoYes, but Tesla uses the excuse that the driver is supposed to be paying attention at all times because it’s only a “driver assistance” system. (Not that the name would ever imply something else. No.) But once you’ve explicitly told the driver they don’t have to pay attention, you don’t have that excuse anymore.
- onethought 5y agoPilots treat autopilot as an assistance system… so it seems apt.

- detaro 5y agoThat's the point of parents comment: Tesla (and every other assist) is Level 2, and thus can always blame the driver for not paying attention and doesn't take responsibility in the same way a Level 3 product has to, which explicitly tells users they don't have to focus on driving but can do other things.
