The latest Tesla vehicles have an Autopilot feature which appears to be one more step toward where I think all vehicles are going: Self-driving.

Here we see someone using this feature and finding it a little scary…

I’m not surprised by the driver’s reaction.  As much as I’m all in favor of self-driving vehicles and, further, believe that’s the future of cars in general, I imagine if I were in his place I’d be doing exactly the same.

It isn’t easy ceding control over something you’ve had all along.  Especially when -at this moment anyway- the roads are filled with people who are NOT driving automated vehicles.
