I've been in a Tesla running the self-driving beta in Manhattan and it is NOT fun or relaxing at all. The car is overly "jumpy", but by jumpy I mean "breaky." The way a lot of pedestrians cross streets (walk into the side of the road and get 2 feet away from a passing car before crossing right behind the car) causes it to slam on the break constantly while people "stage" their crossing. It's also terrible at left turns without a light. Both of these flaws are completely understandable because it's a complex safety situation, but people who think human drivers are replaceable within 5 years are naive.
