I'm supposed to entrust my life and others' to this and they're bragging on their home page about GitHub stars?

  It’s open source bro, just read the code if you don’t trust it. /s That said I am intimately familiar with the code and it’s pretty well designed with safety in mind. Plus your vehicle has safety parameters that limits the ability for the software to do something insane. That said there are a few stories of open pilot running into a curb, hitting a car in the neighboring lane, etc

    Comma is anal about safety. Few years ago they went as far as to ban anyone tinkering with Ford trucks/vans via park assist commands since those had unlimited steeeing torque/angle (and speed spoofing).

      Here's some context for why those park assist commands are so dangerous. https://blog.comma.ai/safer-control-of-steering/ https://blog.comma.ai/safer-control-of-steering/

        Holy fuck, didn't expect reply from the man himself. First thank you for Open pilot, it's truly an amazing project, I've been user since 2019. Second, comment re Ford was not to criticise you but to underscore that Comma and you personally take safety very seriously.
