Wife: "Why is it so jerky?"
Me: "Well, it can decelerate somewhat abruptly while on freeway interchanges..."
Wife: "It's not just around corners, it's all the time on the freeway; why do you use it if it is so bad?"
Me: "Well, I'm trying it out; I think maybe you notice less if you're driving"
Wife: "Well, I notice it. It's ok to try it out if you're the only one in the car, but it isn't cool to do it otherwise"
Me: ...
Wife: If you keep trying to use it, I'm going to stop riding in this car, and we're going to have to take my car*. It's not relaxing.
Me: <disengages Autopilot for remainder of trip>
<a couple minutes pass>
Wife: It's much smoother now. Did you turn it off?
Me: Yes, I did.
Wife: I'm much more relaxed now.

Here's hoping that Tesla discovers low pass filters soon.
