I had mixed feelings about Tesla's Autopilot feature when I tested it in one of the electric-car maker's Model 3 sedans.

I used Tesla's Autopilot feature — which allows a vehicle to handle steering, acceleration, and braking in some circumstances, but requires driver supervision — on the highway for the first time at the end of September. I could feel my attention starting to drift from time to time when it was on because I felt disconnected from the driving experience. And the system would sometimes brake too aggressively. Autopilot was most useful in slow-moving traffic.
