How do they deal with insects hitting the glass covering the cameras? Also if multiple cameras get blurred because of insect dirt in front of them?

- jayd16 4y agoIf something obstructs the camera, autopilot will signal as such and disengage. I assume there's _some_ overlap in camera coverage but it won't work if they're disabled. Also won't work if there's too much glare.

It doesn't actually happen very often, the aerodynamics are quite good at diverting crud from the cameras. (The front-facing cameras are behind the wipers, so you can at least clean those ones while driving.)
