No road markings or centre line as it's residential.
You can't engage AP in a street without center markings. AP can only be 5 miles above Speed Limit.set AP to 60 and see how long it takes to go 400ft. Or does AP not work that way from a stop?
I see some possibilities
- The owner knew how to rig the system to drive in AP without sitting in the seat. He helped the two non-owners. That would call for homicide charges ...
- They set a high speed "cruise control", thought they were in AP (one clock down vs two) and assumed AP would take the turn - but it went straight ? Given that the people were non-owners and probably unfamiliar with the car, this is a possibility. I don't use Cruise Control - so not sure if this is possible.
Given the circumstances - a lot of details will change as the fog of the fire clears, I'm sure.
