They highly discourage buggy code with no safety checks - I have been one of those people with no safety checks and have since implemented some

It's only a level 2 system and with this hardware, won't ever be level 3

If there's an accident, the driver has to be pretty stupid. it's predictable, you know where its strong and weak points are. It has weak points when the roads get tricky. Previously it would panic through an intersection, this has since been improved upon.

Its eyes don't leave the road, people on their phones do. I wonder which cause more bumper to bumper collisions!

They probably won't accept responsibility, that's on the driver since openpilot is a driver assist system, not a higher level (L3+) self-driving system

it's a dashcam with a passive driver assist system, the openpilot stuff is a separate product meant to be installed onto the "comma two" by the user

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

Jump on youtube, plenty of timelapses showing its reliability. The predictability of the system partly removes the danger factor and with the driver monitoring system in place, it becomes very difficult to not pay attention. I'd rather have this driving a car on highways than most people I know
Yeah it's pretty amazing for $700 and time if your car isn't already supported
