So then what is the point of Autopilot at all? I'm a big fan of Tesla, and I've wanted to try Autopilot for years, but after I saw that YouTube video of the driver needing to slam on the breaks to barely avoid hitting the divider, I thought "no thanks". If Autopilot dangerously lulls you into a false sense of security, I'd rather drive manually where I'm forced to be attentive.
