This is awesome. I hope this technology continues to advance and decrease in price - but it's already a great value at this one.

The thing is, none of this is really better than any of the simpler systems in terms of use.

If you are required to pay attention most of the time, it defeats the purpose of self driving. Most humans can perform very complex tasks while keeping a car in lane, and adaptive cruise control is nothing new.

Also, being in my coworkers/friends Teslas that are using Autopilot, it almost seems like there is more cognitive load in using it in crowded areas, because you have to be very attentive to catch a disengagement.
