Just a reminder everyone that Autopilot can turn itself off if it senses a difficult situation. Usually in those cases, you have less than a second to react to avoid an accident. Also, auto steer can disengage due to a slightly too forceful driver nudge on the steering wheel, and an accidental brush against the brake perhaps resulting in a situation where you think AP is on, and it really isn't. Finally, Autopilot isn't fail safe and sometime it can indeed miss a turn or drift off a lane.
All this to say that you HAVE to be looking forward ready to take over at any point in your drive. Obviously this driver did not do this, which is a cautionary lesson for everyone. I'm glad no one got seriously hurt.
