It's only a level 2 system and with this hardware, won't ever be level 3
If there's an accident, the driver has to be pretty stupid. it's predictable, you know where its strong and weak points are. It has weak points when the roads get tricky. Previously it would panic through an intersection, this has since been improved upon.
Its eyes don't leave the road, people on their phones do. I wonder which cause more bumper to bumper collisions!
They probably won't accept responsibility, that's on the driver since openpilot is a driver assist system, not a higher level (L3+) self-driving system
Yeah plenty has changed since then, there are limits that are checked twice to ensure the driver is always able to take control. If violated, the car or openpilot throws an error
openpilot.comma.ai
Jump on youtube, plenty of timelapses showing its reliability. The predictability of the system partly removes the danger factor and with the driver monitoring system in place, it becomes very difficult to not pay attention. I'd rather have this driving a car on highways than most people I know
