The Tesla version 10 had been out for about two weeks now it’s packed with entertainment (Tesla Theater, Karaoke, Spotify and Cuphead). But the feature that attracts the most media attention is Smart Summon. Videos of people running after the car thinking the car lose control, near collision or actual collision, got many talking about the danger of autonomous driving. For the first time, a car without a driver insight is navigating in public areas (mostly parking lots). Tesla chooses to roll out smart summon, while more owners probably would like to see an improvement on autopilot on highway to completely hand-free. Consumer reports stated that Smart Summon seems to be glitch without much benefit due to the limitations. It cannot be used in public road, can’t detect all traffic/curbs, have to be within line of sight and the owner is responsible for monitoring the surrounding at all times. As more people try to count steps and live a healthier life, the glitches and limitations with Smart Summon might actually be a good thing for Tesla owners are most are still choosing to walk instead of summoning the Tesla to pick them up.
