The guy driving the MB car should have been arrested. That car is not allowed to use autopilot on that road. Omar should have been arrested too because he is accomplice.
That was Omar driving, his dad was in the passenger seat. I thought the Mercedes system would be geofenced by GPS. Really poor implementation if it allows you to activate on roads it can't even remotely handle. Tesla's standard Autopilot is not geofenced either, but its performance on surface streets is not this poor.The guy driving the MB car should have been arrested.

All that proves is that you can't make anything idiot proof because God keeps making better idiots.
The MB system is Level 3 on mapped highways. This means you can legally not be paying attention - reading a book, watching a movie, doing email, etc. So yes, there is a HUGE difference between Tesla and MB.
I paid for FSD when I bought my car and have been using the FSD Beta and supervised during the entire time so I have watched it develop. There is a comfort level you get with it. The latest version, yes, I have cut it off for speeding a few times. And to avoid potholes. There was this one road I think it had STOP signs in the map data because it kept slowing down when it shouldn't have. Sometimes in complicated multi-car traffic situations I avoid it not because it did something really wrong but I didn't think I could react quickly enough *if* it did something wrong.
I thought you meant the video itself was a prolonged advertisement for Tesla stocks, which it is.
@17:55 his dad even says "It's not like it's self driving, you're testing lane assist as if it's FSD". I believe the Mercedes L3 system is geo-fenced by GPS. Omar the Tesla shill was merely "testing" the lane keep + adaptive cruise control features, while allowing us to believe it's the L3 system on display.
That's what I thought, but I also noticed Omar providing steering input on the MB like one needs to do with FSD so I wasn't sure if it's Level 3 on the highway (in a single lane, under 35 MPH) and level 2 everywhere else or if it's just not geofenced. It's interesting because that's one of the criticisms people have had about AP on Teslas.The guy driving the MB car should have been arrested. That car is not allowed to use autopilot on that road.

They also criticized a sports car for having a stiff ride. It's really hard to interpret what they say because they clearly have biases even though they profess not to.
Why NHTSA forced Tesla to recall FSD because it didn't give enough warning to users for misusing the feature but they didn't ask MB to recall Drive Pilot when it allowed users to use it outside of geofenced areas?
That doesn’t matter. If DP is geofenced, it should not operate outside of it. But just like old AP, it operates outside the geofence and runs stop signs etc.
Where do you see that L3 DrivePilot is working outside of the geofence? The whole mars video is not using L3 Drive Pilot. Hes not even in a car equipped with Drive Pilot. It just has L2 drivers assistance.
