    Lawyers are suppose to make good faith efforts, but some get too
    creative. Unless some loopholes exist in Calis laws....

    Autopilot, for any vehicle OEM, is a nice idea, but I don't think the
    tech side is good enough currently. Trucking industry has been using
    it, but iirc, on specific roadways doing point A to point B runs.

    On another note, consider how pissed off Musky is when government
    agencies tell him to do this/that, which costs money, etc. =======================
