    This is true, friend has one. Just like regular cruise control, you can goose it and it returns to self driving. Not for long though I think, then it shuts off.

    The other thing not mentioned are the interior cameras, Teslas have interior cameras too so they have him recorded doing whatever he was doing.

      I want to believe you, because that’s the sensible way of handling user input. But here’s a forbes article about another incident:

      There are four ways to disengage FSD – pressing the accelerator is not one:

      • Press the brake pedal.
      • If equipped, move the gear stalk upward.
      • If equipped, press the right scroll wheel on the steering wheel.
      • Take over (grab and jerk) the steering wheel and steer manually.

        That’s what I said? The accelerator does not disable self drive, and it’s not in the list.

          Oh then I misinterpreted this line to mean the opposite, my bad!
