That's due to Cadillac mapping out the highways with lidar so the car basically follows an imaginary path in the the middle of the lane.
How would LIDAR help with mapping or following lanes? Even if this were true, wouldn't that mean that if the car leaves the mapped area that it will fail? If there's any changes in lane markings, such as for construction, it will fail? If a vehicle hovers over the line, such as a truck, requiring the car to reposition in the lane, it will fail?
I'm excited for more and better self-driving tech, but I feel like Autopilot is often being unfairly graded on a curve.
