Tesla is considered driver assist, not driverless.
Somehow the car was tricked into thinking there was a driver behind the wheel. From what I've heard, you jamb a rubber ball in the steering wheel, it thinks it's a hand.
We recently bought a a Toyota Highlander. It had lane assist. it is awful! No way could it be trusted, it follows the striping on the roadway. I tried it one time, never again.
The cruse control works well, it looks for the car in front and adjusts the speed down if needed. When I had the lane assist on, I had the cruse set on 70 and was held back by the car in front going about 60. There was an exit ramp, the car in front went straight, my car tried to follow the line to the exit ramp. When it saw the car in front was gone, it hard accelerated up to 70, at the same time taking the sharp exit turn. Had I not hit the brake, it would have been very bad!!!
I like the cruse, but the lane assist is very dangerous!
As for driverless cars and trucks, we're not there yet. I don't see it happening until we have dedicated, fenced, roadways where all vehicles are computer controled. Too many variables otherwise.
