But if it’s marketed to change lanes, adjust speed, avoid obstacles, stop, signal, and everything else a driver does… then it’s being marketed as far more than “advanced cruise control”, is it not?
Quite literally their website says: “Tesla cars come standard with advanced hardware capable of providing Autopilot features, and full self-driving capabilities.”
“The system is designed to be able to conduct short and long distance trips with no action required by the person in the driver’s seat.”
“When you arrive at your destination, simply step out at the entrance and your car will enter park seek mode, automatically search for a spot and park itself. A tap on your phone summons it back to you.”
They are telling you the car will drive without someone even being in it!
Why are they even allowed to get away with this kind of marketing? Getting people killed along the way.
