    It turns off when it sees a pedestrian? So if it’s cruising down the highway at 65 and there’s a hitchhiker, or a broken down car and driver on the side of the road, your autopilot will just shut off? That seems dangerous.

      “The system will also deactivate when other requisite conditions are not met, as well as when an emergency vehicle is detected, when approaching toll roads, in construction or special regulation zones, or if a pedestrian or cyclist is detected.”

      From the article, I guess there shouldn’t be pedestrians on highways…
