Sure, and I respect your position, but compared to the driving I've done in the past (including on closed circuits), holding onto the steering wheel and my foot hovering over the pedals is hardly what I would consider dangerous, but to each their own.
I didn't think there was more than one position on the stalk. Just a single pull down for TACC and a double pull down for AP. I will try it next time to see if a light pull down will set my speed below the speed limit.
Hate to tell you, but as someone that has certified autopilot systems with the FAA, that absolutely isn't true.
The system must perform its intended function. A failure of that intended function shall not put the aircraft at risk. If you want to use the pilot as backup for your system, you must give reasonable time for the pilot to take over, usually 3-10 seconds. You cannot certify a system that requires the pilot to react in less than a second to keep the aircraft safe.
It doesn’t quite work that way: TACC/AS at speed limit + offset is pulling towards you once/twice. But if you pull it down towards the floor(same as direction for decreasing TACC/AS speed when they’re on), it turns on TACC at your current speed. Pull towards you after that and you get AS at current speed.
Will this work on AP1 car?

It shows planned route (gray) vs when it's driving right now (blue)
It's + 12 miles to speed limit you set in AP config
Yeah lane changed is restricted to the freeway
I don't think so it requires way to many cameras
M3 uses the shifter stalk for autopilot.
MS/MX have a dedicated stalk for AP that has 6 positions: up, further up, down, further down, in, and out.

Very Nice. Do you have too manually use the turn signals or does it do it for you. you just hold the wheel?
Great video and music. Thank you.
Would be interested to see if when you are in the fast lane and someone comes up behind you if it changes lanes to the right. Perhaps you could team up with another driver to test that.
Also, would like to see how it handles changing lanes in slow densely packed traffic. For example, does it change speed to try to match into a small gap. That might be a bit scary to try though.

That looks better than I expected, especially in what looked to be low light settings.
Hmm, are the AP2.5 front cameras RGB? Those look pretty much like full color, not RCCC/RCCB.
At 1;50 it looks like the car is in the process of changing lanes to the left, sees a rapidly approaching car in that lane, and slides back into the middle of the current lane, let’s the rapid car pass, and then changes lanes behind it. Was that what happened, or did the car miss a guy in the adjacent lane next to it before catching itself? If it’s the former, then that’s impressive and I would be interested in knowing what the speed differential was.

@dennis_d thanks for the video, very exciting. Also, do you know what is meant by the message “steering rate saturated” at minute 0:36?
