The Comma One source code was put online (I think by the author?) and deemed to be incredibly dangerous. If I recall there was very little error handling. Does anyone know what has really changed since then?

Yeah plenty has changed since then, there are limits that are checked twice to ensure the driver is always able to take control. If violated, the car or openpilot throws an error openpilot.comma.ai

Source (i assume you read the source code and know where these checks are)?

This was harder to find but this is where caps for steering are set in OpenPilot:

Last but not least, here is brake and gas limiting:

Well, it didn't take me long to find a message about this on the frontpage that clearly says:

> Keep your eyes on the road.

> "While engaged, openpilot includes camera based driver monitoring that works both day and night to alert the driver when their eyes are not on the road ahead"

Also, if there are deaths around other autonomous systems like we have seen from Tesla and Uber then perhaps they're even more dangerous as they are closed-systems, unlike this then.
