From the middle of October 2015, the owners of electric cars "Tesla" had the opportunity to use the autopilot function. The car really goes by itself, but drivers are still asked to monitor the traffic situation and not to take their hands off the wheel. Nevertheless, some owners of "Tesla" decide to break this rule, fully trusting the automation. Medusa has collected the most expressive examples of what people are doing when they are in a car with an autopilot.

Are surprised

The owner of the Tesla autopilot shocked his 70-year-old mother. A man put the woman behind the wheel, after which the car started independently and picked up speed. Mom was scared and did not hide it.

By the way, children can also be scared by this function. Somehow, the child was left alone in a car, independently leaving the garage - and the boy began to fearfully persuade the car to stop.

Have fun

Acting teacher Michael Woolson and his wife showed what you can do in Tesla Model X with autopilot function. The couple played, ate, honored, fought with lightsabers from Star Wars, did a massage and even went in for sports. At the end of the trip, the driver and passenger simply went to bed.

Are sleeping
One of the owners of electric cars so relaxed that he managed to doze off on the road. This event in May 2016, the driver of a nearby car captured on the track.

If a person behind the wheel for a long time does not pay attention to the management, Tesla sends signals to the driver and may even stop on the sidelines. The creator of "Tesla" Ilon Mask promises that the machines will become fully autonomous in 2018 year - and then you can safely sleep on the road.

Do not crash

The Tesla autopilot can dodge collisions - and sometimes it really works. Once the car, traveling on the counter, sharply turned right in front of the electric cars; The autopilot managed to react and stop.

The manufacturer stresses that the self-management function in Tesla during bad weather conditions may not work well enough. As you can see from the record, it was raining outside, but the road, according to the author of the video, was dry.

This is not the only case when the autopilot managed to prevent a collision of cars.

Barely get into accidents

“Tesla” of another owner herself almost provoked an accident on the road. The man decided to try out the autopilot function near the house. At first, everything was going well, but suddenly the car began to cross the double solid and drive into the oncoming lane along which the car was moving. The driver managed to turn the steering wheel and dodge the blow.

The autopilot function works with radar, front camera, several ultrasonic sensors and GPS navigation. Ilon Musk emphasizes that the system is not yet completely autonomous, and hands should still be kept on the steering wheel. “People can [remove their hands from the helm under good weather conditions], but we do not recommend doing this,” said Musk at the autopilot presentation.

True, the temptation to ride "without hands" is too great - even Mask Talula Riley's wife once rushed along the road, dancing in the driver's seat.

Playing drivers

Pranker MagicofRahat scared drivers on the road, using the autopilot feature in Tesla. The joker hid in the driver's seat so that he was not visible. Drivers passing by were shocked that no one was in the car, but she was driving down the road. “This is not a joke, this is the future - there is no one behind the wheel of this“ Tesla ”, and it is driving along the highway,” commented the surprised driver from a passing car, shooting what was happening on the camera.
