So they are able to plan ahead putting on gloves while still inside their house, in anticipation of their steering wheel being ice cold, but they are completely unable to plan ahead and turn on the heating in the car instead to make it nice and toasty before even getting into their cars.
Yeah.. it talks about implications (you will lose Autosteer) and how many strikes you have and what is the limit.How do you know when you get a strike? Does it literally say “strike 1 of 5” etc?
I’ve not had one as far as I know…..

As time goes by the more they take away or penalise you for. It was never this bad a couple of years ago.
While you can consider it that way, you can also think that if certain Tesla owners keep using AutoPilot in an inappropriate and dangerous way then regulators are likely to enforce their own controls that are likely to be less desirable.
The main problem for Tesla is, if they continue down this road, they risk losing costumers.
Other things affect the strikes also. The way you hold the steering wheel for example.

)I do expect this steering wheel yank and holding to go eventually when maybe their camera system is good enough and they get sign-off like Ford Blue-Cruise did. Hence why I think they skipped on a capacitive steering wheel as they just don't expect you to be holding the wheel so it's a waste. Like everything with Tesla, they do this stuff way before the software or even laws catch up.Totally
I often get the blue flashing....Not because i am not holding the steering wheel, but because i am not applying force.
Imagine if the AP / CC also demanded you oscillated the accelerator a bit to show your foot was on the accelerator. The greatest thing about "Cruise Control" is, you do not need to constantly apply force to the accelerator, i used to cramp up in my foot, because i had to "lock" my foot at a given position, not having to add force to the accelerator is the greatest invention ever (And CC also keeps the speed, which is great for not getting speeding tickets
The Steering wheel i have to "yank" to prove i am holding the steering wheel, which is VERY annoying.
I rarely use autopilot simply because it doesn't understand that me holding the steering wheel at 10 to 2 simply doesn't give enough torque for it to know. It's very frustrating that holding the steering wheel with one hand seems to work much better, I just won't do that as it's not as safe.Totally

That’ll be difficult since some cars don’t have a camera, others do have a camera but no infrared lights while newer cars do.
Well whatever the reason for originally putting the camera in, they obviously have found they can at least partially use it for other purposes. I suspect if / when they can get hands free approved like Ford Blue Cruise if the camera cannot clearly see your eyes it's going to revert to hands on steering wheel. Sunglasses, no go. Nighttime and no IR, no go, etc.
10 to 2 if your problem here.
Yeah I know, but given it's been taught for decades as the way to drive having a system that doesn't allow for it is a bit frustrating.
Even when I one hand it, I still need to give it a tug when it starts flashing. A bit annoying but ultimately I still find this better than not having autopilot on at all.
