If the driver was unresponsive in a normal car, it would stop.

150 more warnings than a regular car would give, ultimately it’s the driver’s fault.

The driver was responding. If he didn’t respond the car would have stopped.
If this was a normal car he probably would have just crashed earlier.

Yes, even in self driving cars the driving is expected to pay attention in case they need to take control in unexpected events

Tesla actively markets their cars as ‘‘the car drives itself’’.

Do we have any evidence from the driver stating that he didn’t realize he was using a glorified cruise control similar to autopilot on an airplane?

Here is a video from 2016 where Tesla claims that “the car drives itself”.

Sadly, Tesla has no such technology.

Where I live you can right now go to Tesla’s website and buy a car with “Full Self-Driving Capability” with a small print that includes the disclaimer that it doesn’t make the vehicle autonomous, for whatever that’s worth…

FSD is a paid feature that i assume was not being used during the accident, autopilot was being used

It’s literally called autopilot
