    I think there has always been a few overly sensitive SJWs

  3. Then tell Tesla to tell people they must keep their hands on the wheel at all times and keep their attention on the road same as if they didn't have autopilot.

  4. Re:Autopilot is a glorified cruise control on Tesla Owner In China Blames Autopilot For Crash (usatoday.com) · · Score: 1

    From Tesla's web site:

    "Autopilot allows Model S to steer within a lane, change lanes with the simple tap of a turn signal, and manage speed by using active, traffic-aware cruise control. Digital control of motors, brakes, and steering helps avoid collisions from the front and sides, and prevents the car from wandering off the road."

    Still autopilot, but the wording implies the 'autopilot' system doesn't do the steering but only allows the Model S to do it.

    " In the end, it requires more concentration to watch on standby ready to take over than manually driving the car yourself."
