Phantom Braking with Version 10

But isn’t that true at any time you drink something while driving? You consider Autopilot use requiring more care than normal?

No I don't think it requires more attention than normal. But since not drinking while driving applies to driving in general, it would also apply to Autopilot since AP is a driver assist.

Well drinking and driving are bad words for obvious reasons... But I don’t think it is at all common to think a driver can’t enjoy a non-alcoholic beverage in a moving car. I think that is quite normal and legal too.

It is true Autopilot can do more unexpected things than just driving yourself but since you can’t even keep both hands on wheel without nags what can you do...

yes but it is compounded if you are also drinking something because it means that one hand is tied up and can't be used for driving. So you only have one hand that is free for driving if you need to intervene.

That is funny, but true!
