What's the point of all this auto drive stuff if you still have to concentrate and correct all the limitations of this (in my opinion never fool proof) technology? It's just a waste of time. If you can't even expect to drive yourself somewhere you may as well just sit in the house and pretend on a computer.
This stuff doesn't make us smarter. It makes us dumber.
They tried for 40 years to make a robot to shear a sheep. The variables even between sheep made it impossible. What chance is there for a robot to conquer a road? Next to none I reckon.
It's like this stupid traction control in my Hilux. If you tow a trailer on a gravel road it all but stops the ute due to wheel spin. You have to put it in 4WD to move. It's just useless in the real world. Plus it chewed out the front disc rotors in 50000km due to its inability to accept that wheel spin on gravel is normal.
This crap might sell vehicles but it really just adds weight and cost.
As for a driverless electric car? No way. Just keeping boffins, marketers and accountants in a job.
