Fanboi alarm! WOOT WOOOOOOOT
Well they came out with their quarterly safety statement and here, from accident data 2020-Q2, it's pretty interesting: Quote:
But this does make me feel better about Autopilot. I'm using it more. Today I had an unexpected moment with it. I wanted to unwrap a cheese stick using both hands, and I started driving the car with my knees, as one does. Then I realized: duh, let the car take over the driving. The car is a waaay better driver than my knees. Even with 40 years of experience in knee-driving. |
Knees are poor drivers, even pro knees are risky. Their problem being the brain is disconnected. It's like a brain off to college just calling home once a week with the knees doing the best they can between calls.
People don't realize hands free phone calls do the same thing. When the person on the line mentions a third party you're spinning your mental rolodex looking for that person. When they mention a place, back to the mental picture files. When they describe an interaction with someone, you're building a stage set picturing the interaction playing out in your head. That is called distracting driving. Yeah, I know, you do it all the time and nothing more than a HONK, oops sorry, has happened. But it will. |

Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down.

Got all that battery weight down low, a little tug on the rope and it rolls right back in the sand or whatever that is. Laying on its side on hard ground would be harder to upright it, might have to ask your date to get out and help. ;)

About the hands free phones, yes and YES this. Which is why I’ll never set my phone up for hands free use in the car. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

how do you engage the autopilot while underway and do you have to take one hand off your cheese to do it?
|
Pull down twice on the right stalk. It's one pull-down for adaptive cruise control, so it's kinda like, one pull for the car to take the accelerator, two for it to take the wheel as well.
Further, grabbing the wheel and actually steering will disengage autopilot, and tapping the brake disengages both autopilot and cruise. |
