The video shows a Tesla car driving itself, both on highways and urban streets fully autonomously. Someone sits in the driver's seat, but does nothing but watch as the car drives them from (presumably) a home to a Tesla office. The car arrives, drops the person off at the entrance, then goes on to find a parking spot and parallel park.
This is a glimpse of our future folks. And it's not the distant future either. This is quite possibly no more than 14 months from now. In fact Elon said that he expects a Tesla will drive, in fully autonomous mode, from LA to New York City by the end of 2017.

About time, I'd say! Soon: no more speeding tickets, no more wingnuts on the freeway commute, and no more damn cops tailgating you.

As long as there are active drivers, there will still be wingnuts on the freeway. But they'll soon stick out like a sore thumb when most people are letting the car do the driving. Hopefully they'll be the ones the cops are following all the time.
