CALIFORNIA — If you're one of those people who has trouble falling asleep, you might want to consider getting a Tesla. <br />According to Electrek, several different Tesla drivers have been caught snoozing at the wheel while on Autopilot—because what else are you going to do if you don't have to steer. <br />NBC 4 reported that last week a driver was caught on camera completely passed out cruising down the 405 Freeway in L.A. with something tied around the steering wheel. <br /><br />Electrek reports that the "something" was probably a device designed to trick Autopilot into sensing that someone is gripping the wheel. <br />The man must have counted some serious sheep because he was on self snooze for at least 30 miles. <br />Another slumbering Tesla driver was then caught last Friday driving in the Bay Area during heavy rush hour traffic with sleep mode fully engaged. <br /><br />The 16-second clip was posted up on Reddit. <br />Tesla drivers are told that they should remain alert and ready to take control at anytime while using Autopilot.
