AutoPilot will be mature when it can handle [this]

And it's a mile long ...

Yea, Williamsburg bridge is 7,308 feet (1.384 miles) long. But the scary part is mostly the inner part that has to go between the suspension bridge supporting columns and wire connecting points. Those are the parts that super narrow and the guard rail that stuck out.

Mackinac Bridge

Multiple surfaces, varying speed limits based on wind speed, narrow lanes with guardrail close to outside edge.

AutoPilot will be mature when it can handle... INDIA!

'nuff said

I watched that crazy video for 5 minutes, I'm still not sure if India is a right or left hand drive country! Ah, constitutionality, who needs it when you can have that kind of freedom?!

AP2 is no match for any of the gentle curves on Charleston's I-26.

Something wrong with your car. My AP2 car has 0 problem with much sharper curves including circular if ramps at 55. I was able to auto change lanes in fairly tight turn as well.

It also could be that the system hadn't learned your area yet. A lot of Tesla's near where I drive.

Ah, but four lanes! It looks like originally it was two grated lanes (like Hood River), and then later added the outside lanes. Interesting variations for AP.

We've been driving the same 14 mile stretch of highway every weekday for over four months. Slow learner, perhaps.

I don't even like driving over that bridge.

With all the accidents on that bridge I avoid it as well and would never use AP on it now or in the future.

The 110 freeway from downtown L.A. to Pasadena. Narrow 3 lane quasi freeway built in the 1940's.

AP1 failed miserably when I tried it about 2 years ago. Would love to see someone's dashcam of AP2 driving that street. Some very tight curves.

I don't have AP 2.0, but my guess (based off of AP 1.0 behavior) is that the quick uphill part of that road is what was causing the problems, not the turn itself. Does it do the same thing in flat turns?

Narrow lanes + bus partly in your lane + pesky drone buzzing around = trifecta!

Plus other drivers on foot hovering around the car to offer advice and guidance on how to maneuver through the gauntlet!

When autopilot can handle this:

The Brilliant Sorcery of England’s 7-Circle Magic Roundabout

I'll be impressed. Heck, I'm impressed anyone can handle that.

“Driving on metal grate, with the river shining through below”

This made me think of my high school son’s recent rim to rim hike at the Grand Canyon (from north rim, down to bottom, then climb out to south rim). There are two bridges at the bottom that cross the Colorado River. One has a similar metal mesh “see through” grate and the other has a wooden bottom. The donkeys that travel in and out of the canyon will only use the solid bottom wood bridge!

oh where do I begin??

stoplights, stopsigns, pedestrian crossings, winding roads on the coast, unmarked roads, snow covered roads, unexpected oncoming or blocking traffic, lack of mapping...not something I think AP1 will ever be able to accomplish, but perhaps AP2 sometime in the distant future. I am certain AP2 isn't even in parity with AP1 yet.

and a gentle yet unnerving swaying side to side

I'll add any 4-way stop under "stop signs". People have either very short attention span, cannot count to 3 or never played "spot the difference" games.

That is one scary looking traverse, @bonnie. Admire your steady hand!
