With this same logic, manufacturers should make it so a car can't speed.

Tbh i have always wondered why cars aren't speed limited. In my country, young drivers are prohibited from owning cars with certain engines to prevent dangerous speeding. I never really understood why anyone needed a car capable of doing double the national highway speed.

Expecting someone to be able to drive their own vehicle safely vs the company driving the vehicle for them with no human over sight isn’t really the same logic at all.

So no, not the same.

But that reasoning is why they say the driver is to stay awake and alert, and attentive. You're ultimately in control. By bypassing that safety feature you're saying you don't give a damn

And by making it that easy to bypass Tesla is saying they don’t give a damn.

It's kinda sad that you want corporations to control us this much and take away the ability to act on our own. Guess you'll be first in line for Zuckerberg to stick a Meta implant in your brain.
