The tech worked, but hardly anyone could actually use it
What just happened? Autonomous driving remains a long-term goal for Mercedes-Benz, but regulatory frameworks continue to limit how and where "eyes-off" systems can operate. For now, the company appears focused on refining solutions that can function reliably within those boundaries rather than pushing prematurely toward full automation.
