    Go read the article again then. There’s a whole section about distracted driving.

      Ive read those 7 paragraphs a couple times now, and I don’t see anything about getting a legal pass. Maybe you could quote it for me?

      I have missed things due to ads covering things up on mobile on the past.

        As a Level 3 system, the driver is permitted to take their hands off the wheel, their feet off the pedals, and divert their attention away from the road. Most other driving systems require you to keep your hands on the wheel and pay attention. With Drive Pilot engaged, users are free to browse the Internet or watch videos on the vehicle’s central display.

        To be fair I’ve had that happen with ads too and it’s infuriating.
