- dirtyaura 12y agoIt seems that Tesla's autopilot is pretty similar to other highway autopilots from manufacturers like Mercedes Benz. The new feature seems to be automatic reading of speed signs.

- rl3 12y agoWhat happens when these systems fail to detect or otherwise read an obstructed speed limit sign?
- thefreeman 12y agoThe same thing that happens if its obstructed from a human?
- zyx321 12y agoWell, my GPS navigation app seems to know the speed limit most of the time. Remember, even if the system isn't perfect, it can still outperform a human.
- cloudwalking 12y agoBMW has already released this in the United States.

- mpg33 12y agoImpressive...I wonder how effective these "autopilot" features are in snow and ice road conditions? Does the autopilot and traction control work together? California doesn't have to worry about these things but a lot of northern markets (Canada/Norway) do.
