I got an Autopilot buddy not because I am some irresponsible person who is going to sleep or watch videos, or even text while driving - but because on recent roadtrip I was put in Autopilot Jail 4 times because I WAS looking at the road ahead and paying attention and as a result did not notice the nags on the display. So I loose the use of Autopilot just when I need it most to aid safe stress free driving.
The simple fact is the present Tesla nags do not work and are there I am sure only because of legal advice to protect Tesla.
A far better system would be eye detection to check attention to the road. I would willingly pay Tesla to fit such camera to my model X to get the current nags switched off - and I am sure a lot of other Tesla drivers would also.
I am not planning using the Autopilot Buddy daily, but just keeping it for long drives where the 30 second nags get annoying to say the least. I have so far only trialed it on short drive, but it does seem to work.
