I am not an expert in autopilot technologies, but my intuition is that its going to take 50 years, or more, for the technology to be ready for this, and the road conditions will need to remove the human-driven cars from the equation for this to work. Putting the driver's responsibility to be aware of what was going on around him aside (which I agree he did not seem to be), Telsa is being grossly negligent for testing this kind of tech in the public sphere. IMHO, computers and software cannot, yet, and for a long time, will not, account for all the variables that are part of driving. People that drive these cars really need to understand that computers cannot think like people. Thats my two cents about this, and I hope that this trial puts the brakes on testing this tech in public.
