I live in a major metropolitan area, drive a model 3, and almost never use autopilot.

I am lucky enough to rarely be in stop-and-go traffic, but when I am, I don’t even use cruise control, because it’s too reactive to the car in front of me and subsequently too jerky for my preference.

As for autopilot, I was on a relatively unpopulated freeway in the second lane from the right, when a small truck came around a clover leaf to merge into the right lane next to me. My car flipped out and slammed on the breaks. The truck wasn’t even coming into my lane; he was just merging. Thankfully there was a large gap behind me, and I was also paying enough attention to immediately jam on the accelerator to counteract it, but it spooked me pretty badly. And this was on a road that it’s designed for.

Autopilot (much less FSD) can’t really think like our brains can. It can only “see” so far ahead and behind. It can’t look at another driver’s behavior and make assessments that they might be distracted or or drunk. We’re not there yet. We’re FAR from there.
