I don't believe you. I own an AP1 Tesla as well as a nominally "FSD computer equipped" AP2 Tesla.

You would be injured or killed if you tried taking an unmonitored trip of any reasonable length - ON THE HIGHWAY - in either, with autopilot on and with the nag disabled using a weight. If you think you don't have to routinely make manual corrections to save yourself from dying I think you are either lying or delusional.

You're stretching quite a bit here...None of the things you said were implied by the previous poster.

What makes you think owners are not aware of this? Try asking that question on the /r/rteslamotors subreddit and you'll see that owners will quickly educate you and tell you to keep your eyes on the road.

You also get a visual warning to do so, whenever you engage Autopilot.

Stretching what, exactly?

They said their car drives itself every day. "Drives itself" means that the car does all of the work of driving without requiring human intervention or involvement. And that technology, of course, does not exist in any car at the moment.

What else could "drives itself" possibly mean?
