> Companies need to aggressively enforce, both hands on steering until self-driving is really really really good.
Hands on the wheel is such a stupid metric. Two hands on the wheel whilst watching a film on an ipad doesn't do a damned thing.
What matters is whether I'm paying attention, a much harder to measure metric. Am I looking at the road, judging distances, hazards, etc.
I say this every time autopilots come up - I think it is impossible for a human to give up responsibility for reacting to 99.99% of input and still retain attention for the remaining 0.01%. I certainly don't believe I can do it, and don't intend to use a car that ever expects it.
Chrysler/Cadillan has eye tracking - seems like exactly the thing you want. While it is in automatic driving mode, it tracks your eyes and if you are not looking at the road for an extended period of time, warnings are issued.
