Seems to be 2 versions of this story. One that blames car, one the driver says it was him.
If it has “autopilot” , and you still have to have your hand on the wheel and pay attention, wouldn’t it

being “on guard” to expect failure of the system? Why even have auto pilot? My concern is with all the
data required to move the car 12”, how will the pilot system stay “connected” , when driving the back
roads of Tennessee, you can’t get full cell service, and Sirius radio drops out regularly. SOOOOOO,
how is that car to stay connected winding through roads at 45 ?? Still dumbest idea of the 21st Century
