They were idiots.
> Before enabling Autopilot, the driver first needs to agree to “keep your hands on the steering wheel at all times” and to always “maintain control and responsibility for your vehicle.” Subsequently, every time the driver engages Autopilot, they are shown a visual reminder to “keep your hands on the wheel."
They read and accepted the warnings informing them how to use the system, and then did the opposite. They willfully and knowingly used a feature in an unsupported manner.
Sorry, this is not being misled by marketing.
- ra7 3y agoUgh, the point is this "feature" shouldn't be allowed to use in an unsupported manner. It's not a button on a website, it's a safety critical system. There's a reason why real self driving companies are super conservative and use a geofence.
- itishappy 3y ago> There's a reason why real self driving companies are super conservative and use a geofence. What reason is that? If they're safety critical systems, why are they putting them on the road at all?
- ra7 3y agoBecause they are validated extensively inside that geofence and any operations inside that area are "supported". They don't let the vehicles go anywhere they want and they don't ever allow you to use it in an unsupported manner. You want a Waymo stop right in the middle of a busy intersection? The vehicle will refuse and keep going until it finds a safe place to stop.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoI thought we were talking about FSD, not autopilot, how is autopilot relevant in this conversation?
