    The system will warn you to pay attention

    … and if we have learned anything from that incident, it is that the warnings have been worthless.

    The system can be tricked even by the worst drunkards! 150 times in a row.

    for a few seconds before shutting down.

    Few seconds are not enough. The crash was already unavoidable.

        This is not a case of autopilot causing an accident, this is a case of an impaired driver

        It is both, of course. The drunkard and the autopilot, both have added their share to create such danger, that ended deadly.

        Driving drunk is already forbidden.

        What Tesla has brought on the road here should be forbidden as well: lane assist combined with adaptive cruise control AND such a bunch of blind sensors.

          The driver was in autopilot. Auto pilot is cruise control and lane assist. It’s not FSD. Tesla didnt bring that " to the road ". The driver was drunk, and with most auto pilot or FSD accidents…its user error.

          Still unaware of a proven FSD accident.
