Tesla navigate on autopilot

In case you've never seen the latest Tesla cars driving on 'autopilot', here's a video showing it in action.

What it allows for over and above the typical dynamic cruise control you would get on other cars is the ability to know where we're going and suggest when it's time to change lanes, which you enable by tapping the turn signal lever.

[Update: The change lanes function I just described is now automatic. You no longer need to use the turn signal to confirm the lane change. The car does it on its own after making sure it's safe to do so. P.S.: That escalated quickly...... (Yeah, I had to say that)

Of course this only works on highways right now, but watch this space....
