They are a great example of how far away we are from automation in many spaces.

The auto-cruise control barely works right for me, the lane assist complains constantly because I don't hang on the steering wheel like an ape as most people do. And don't get me started about the auto-brake system that tries to stop when the lane next to me slows down, on an interstate.
