Episode notes

Two years ago, it took the top spot. It had adequate and effective driver monitoring to make sure the driver is not asleep at a minimum. The reason that we included that at all was because CR doesn't usually test nor promote and endorse modifying your vehicle. And so we kind of used it as a tool. But yes, it was not included this time.

Consumer Reports vehicle technology maven and friend of the show Kelly Funkhouser returns to discuss CR's new rankings for active driver assistance systems, the class of systems pioneered by Tesla Autopilot. Kelly explains why the ranking emphasizes collaborative and driver monitoring features over automation, how critical these elements are to the safety of such systems, where her work ranking them will go from here, and much more.
