Don't fear monger.

"Teslas" do not "run into the backs of car carriers".

I don't know where you are repeating that from, because you've clearly never driven one, but the core concept of autopilot is that the human should step in whenever a situation is confusing and/or dangerous. If the car does not recognize a situation it will always alert the driver to take over.

You are factually wrong. The autopilot has even swerved into gore points, causing fatal wrecks.

The parent poster was referencing this, which I found immediately using Google:
