Things I regret: Looking at github issues for the open-source self-driving car conversion kit.

Thousands of people use these things on public roads.

22 Acura RDX - steering disables under 45mph · Issue #34346 · commaai/openpilot

Describe the bug Steering is completely disabled below 45mph on release branch. There is no visual warning saying it is disabled, the car just drives in a straight line until it about to go offroad...

@jonty JFC, you'd think people would be smart enough to run this stuff on private roads, parking lots or closed test tracks, this stuff is absolutely not ready for public roads.

@alextecplayz @jonty It's hard to reach 45mph at parking lots...

@geert @alextecplayz @jonty the one documented instance of achieving 88 mph in a carpark escaped the small space through the 4th dimension.
