There is a weight sensor in the driver's seat and a torque sensor in the steering wheel. If you leave the seat, autopilot will disengage immediately. If you take your hands off the wheel it will disengage in a minute or so. They also say it was traveling at a "high rate of speed", but autopilot will not go more than 5mph over the limit on surface roads. Something doesn't add up here.
Autopilot goes more than 5mph over speed limit. You can set it to whatever you want
Not on surface roads. And max 90mph on highways.
