I meant to put this here yesterday, but I forgot.
A self driving Tesla with a sleeping driver was chased along the Autobahn
for 15 minutes, travelling at 70 MPH, they eventually managed to stop him.
He woke to lots of trouble, you don't really want to upset the German Police,
they have no sense of humour, many years ago, to smile when stopped, cost
10 Marks on the spot fine, for not taking the situation seriously.
The driver in this situation, was caught with a steering wheel weight, that lets
the car think that the driver is awake, self driving cars are not allowed in full
auto mode in Germany, they took his licence and his car, for starters.
