Maybe I misunderstood but why was the vehicle doing 68mph on a 55mph road? Is that the driver's fault or autopilot?

Perhaps they should rename it to assisted driving or something like that. I think I saw something about someone sleeping while on autopilot. There's only so much parenting the manufacturer of the car can do. The ethics of all this are much more complex of course - but perhaps the messaging needs to be clearer that autopilot is more akin to advanced cruise control as opposed to you can go to sleep, the car can drive itself.
