2019.32.12.7 Drastically Increases Autopilot Nag Rate

[Padelford]

The period between driver "nags" for hands on wheel during Autopilot has dropped from about 40 - 45 seconds to 14 - 16 seconds at freeway speeds! This is really getting excessive. I thought as V10 progressed, Elon had said they would slow down the rate of nags, not increase the rate.

When driving in the right lane on a freeway, the vehicle still strays into on-ramp lanes trying to maintain lane centering instead of tracking on the left side of the lane.

In Europe it's always been roughly 12 seconds nag rate since quite a while ago (~6 months).

The nag is based on the distance not time. It is per km.

The faster you drive, the more frequent nag you would get.

Not true in Europe anymore I believe, after they changed it. I did some tests on that in Norway and no matter if I drove 70 km/h or 120 km/h the nags always seemed ~12 seconds apart.

In the recent past, say two months ago or sooner, the freeway-speed nag period was consistently 40 - 45 seconds. I was shocked by the new value and clocked it several times.

This simply depends on local regulations. Here in EU, we have 12 seconds period, annoying...
