It sounds a bit like the 3 foot wide concrete pillar that came out of nowhere and scratched half way down the passenger side of the car recently.

You can blame the driver but if tesla calls their systems "auto-pilot" or "full self-driving" mode then they're creating expectations in people's minds that they aren't going to be kamikaze'd into a concrete wall... When they create these expectations and then people die, something needs to change.

Even if they didn't call it that, anything that allows drivers to redirect their attention seems dangerous to me. Because it is always going to be hard for a disengaged driver to regain control and evade an accident in the last second.
