| Would at least like to use it for stop and go traffic, which is about the only thing I trust FSD for. |

Crawling along at 15mph, sure. But the most dangerous driving scenario - whether human or machine is the driver - is a scenario with large variations in speed between vehicles and also limited visibility. For example suddenly encountering a traffic jam that starts around a blind corner. | | |

| Sorry, but disabling autopilot/FSD to use your phone is much crazier. |
