> In 59 crashes examined by NHTSA, the agency found that Tesla drivers had enough time, “five or more seconds,” prior to crashing into another object in which to react. In 19 of those crashes, the hazard was visible for 10 or more seconds before the collision. Reviewing crash logs and data provided by Tesla, NHTSA found that drivers failed to brake or steer to avoid the hazard in a majority of the crashes analyzed.
This tells you everything about autonomous driving. It is either working 100% all the time, or it does not work at all. Problem here is that if human brain is not in the driving loop, it will just disconnect. You can have open eyes and watching road, but you will just stop processing what is going on around you.
Just open a YouTube video of some boring long dashcam drive on highway and see how long you will manage to keep alerted and able to intervene by just watching. 5 minutes? 10 minutes?
