How does this work on intersections? E.g. if you have to turn, because straight ahead is wrong way sign for a one way road.

Autopilot steers with the lane you're in. If it's unsure at the intersection, it will force the driver to retake control.

I've never been at an intersection where straight ahead is a wrong way (wouldn't the traffic be then facing you?), but like any cruise control system, it would likely require driver attention.

Autopilot is not intended to be enable and go to sleep. It's simply fancy cruise control.
