| Sorry if I was rude :) As you said you have driven your brother’s Tesla. That’s impressive that the Honda tech has gotten that good. I’ve driven many cars with lane assist and some are better than others. You mentioned ‘bouncing off the lane edges’, and the reality is this is still where most companies are at. Which is fine because that’s all it’s supposed to be. It’s designed to be an assist when you mess up. Just a gentle nudge back to where you’re supposed to be. I’m glad this stuff is becoming standard though it’s great tech. My point though is they are not meant to be ‘self diving’ is meant to be a safety ‘assist’. Honestly, Elon still refuses to call it ‘self driving’ because the driver is still expected to be alert and monitor the autopilot. But the level of sophistication autopilot has is so far ahead of anything else, my point was it doesn’t make sense to compare them. Pretty soon they will finish beta testing, and you will download an update, and the Tesla will be able to navigate complex traffic situations including cities and traffic signals. To be fair, I saw something where Honda is supposedly developing a competitor to Tesla autopilot, but the current tech is not that. And the Honda autopilot will only be offered in Japan in a very limited quantity of some exotic $100K+ model. Who knows when those efforts will trickle down to be regular production vehicles available in America. But it’s available today in a Tesla. It’s really impressive what they have achieved! |
