I have ridden in many Tesla-based Ubers with human drivers using autopilot.

Here outside of Los Angeles, about an hour east, they do not do well at all on their 'auto-pilot.'

Your area has the benefit of being one of the primary training areas, and thus the dataset for your area is good.

Try that here. I'll be more than happy to watch you piss yourself as the Tesla tries to take you into the HOV lane THROUGH THE BARRIERS.

Auto-Pilot is not FSD. It's akin to a regular carmaker's Automatic-Braking-System and Lane-Keep-Assist. If you're seeing it used dangerously that's user error.
