I've been driving for about 55 years. I never drive in the center of the lane--the yellow strip on the left and the white shoulder line on the right. Never. When I can, I drive in a lane which gives me a buffer between opposing traffic or traffic in other lanes. Driving in the center cuts that down by two or more feet. When in the far left (fast) lane, I don't hug the wall, but I also give myself a larger buffer than the autodrive track does.
I suggest Tesla give us a choice to slide the "center" target line over a bit in either direction to add more buffer and reaction time when someone crosses into our lane. Given how poorly the Tesla predicts how a blocking car is moving out of the way, I think this makes sense.
We should also be able to designate (or the vehicle should sense) that we meet the "high=occupancy" requirements of a highway and automatically route us into that extra lane.
This is more important than fart noises.
