Autopilot safety tests

Only 1 out of 14 autopilots were able to pass safety tests in the US. The tested systems included Tesla, BMW, Ford, GM, Genesis, Lexus, Mercedes, Nissan, and Volvo. Only Lexus received a 'acceptable' rating, while GM and Nissan were rated 'mediocre', and the rest received a lower score. The main problem is that the autopilot can be easily tricked, for example, by using a weight that simulates a hand on the steering wheel. Additionally, many systems functioned even if the driver was not wearing a seatbelt or had their face covered with fabric.
