I love how the image in the article has a caption that says it tells you to pay attention to the road, but I had to zoom in all the way to figure out where that message actually was.

I’d expect something big and red with a warning triangle or something, but it’s a tiny white message in the center of the screen.

Ah yes, red with a warning like “WARNING: ERROR: THE SITUATION IS NORMAL!”

Some cars that have cruise control but an analog gauge cluster that can’t display WARNING ERRORs even hide stuff like “you still have to drive the car” in a manual you have to read yet nobody cares about that.

Honestly driving a car should require some sort of license for a bare minimum of competence.
