I have heard so many things in this forum, outside it, in the media and by others about Tesla and autopilot that are simply dumbfounding. Once and for all, i want to know what you think and settle this.
Statements like the ones in this video.
"Tesla [HW2.0] is fully capable of going point A to B, with no driver intervention, navigating stop signs, cross walks, roundabouts, etc. But is only limited by current regulations that don't allow for this" - Vehicle Virgins
You have others at seeking alpha saying "Need visual proof? Here's a video link to a Tesla Model S driving at level 5 autonomy. So, Tesla (already) has the technology, but the regulatory hurdles keeps me tentative on a two or three-year implementation timeline."

These myths also transcends tv media.
Nissan were recently interviewed (i believe BBC?) about their fully self driving car during one of their demo.
In this interview Nissan spokesperson said they will be releasing their level 3 car in 2018. The reporter quickly rebutted (paraphrasing) "but whats the point tesla already have level 5 self driving on the road right now.") The Nissan spokesperson looked at the reporter like "how naive... you don't even know what you're talking about".
This article actually explains in detail what am talking about.
