> this is CRUISE CONTROL, not auto-pilot
I give the same response as above. Tesla names this feature 'Autopilot'. The tech is not at fault (though it could be better), but the user expectation and understanding of the tech is faulty, and I think part of this is the name Tesla is using. In this case their ambition is ahead of common sense.

See 'Autopilot' as a major feature on their site:
