One of the most interesting things I heard was the Google employee, Chris Irmson quoted at 10:20 in the program
It's dangerous to require humans to snap to attention and take control at a moments notice so we stopped developing cars that put humans on call
The reason this caught my attention it that it agrees with my thoughts after my experience driving a loaner Model S with TACC, specifically, that it was tricky to turn my brain on and off alternating with the cruise. I found myself thinking: Does the Tesla see that car coming into my lane? Is it slowing down soon enough? Do I stare at the road or can I relax a bit?
I see this as a serious problem since the responsibility and the liability for an accident might come into question.
I am very worried about Tesla being sued by someone who didn't take control in time. Even if Tesla prevails, the publicity would be bad.
