TESLA

The 'golden rule' of Tesla Autopilot
As Tesla gained more recognition in the automotive (and electric-vehicle) market, the manufacturer also began to be known for its semi-autonomous driving mode, the Autopilot.Not being a completely autonomous driving mode, the Autopilot is only able to keep the car in the road and adjust the speed in order to save drivers in traffic situations.Autopilot therefore has limited use and should only be activated under certain circumstances and always with due care. This is an important factor that should be taken into account by all drivers of a Tesla car, with Business Insider to reinforce that, even with Autopilot activated, you should never take your hands off the wheel.This is a warning that has been reinforced by Tesla itself since Autopilot was launched and with two fatal crashes where driving mode was active, it is more relevant than ever to do so again. Although the name 'Autopilot' may mislead you, you should treat it as a more advanced 'cruise control' and always with the proper precautions.
