They don't have to suspend Autopilot as legally they can claim they require you to be fully alert at all times. Of-course this negates all benefits of Autopilot and still let's them continue to scam people into selling Tesla's as more safer than common adaptive cruise control.

that is what happened in the recent fatality, tell me how that is even remotely acceptable regardless of disclaimers. I seriously doubt adaptive cruise control would do the same, the majority of them work by following other vehicles.


I agree. It's one thing to say "the technology won't always save you from an accident" and entirely different to say "sometimes the technology will drive you into a wall".


Adaptive cruise control plus lane assist would do same thing.
