    Even if that is true and the system is perfect at doing so…

    This does nothing to refute his point. It’s still giving a reason not to pay attention while requiring that you pay attention.

    Even if it is accurately able to assess whether you are, and act accordingly, it is still giving you a reason not to pay attention. All your statement does is reinforce that it’s requiring you to pay attention, which was part of his point.

      Definitely not refuting the point. Just noting that it’s very aggressive in making sure you’re watching the road. I can’t even look at the screen where the map is for too long or it gives me a warning beep.

        How does the car know where your looking? Don’t you have your hands on the steering wheel? I have a lane keep assist feature in my car and it has you take the wheel every 15 secs if it hasn’t felt your hand weight on the wheel.

          There’s a camera in the cabin that faces the driver. It’s above the rear view mirror. It does also feel the weight of your hand on the wheel and gets mad if that’s missing.

            Oh interesting I didn’t realize they were able to view the driver while your driving.
