So if the guy died the car would of disengaged auto pilot (I’m not sure how this works).
You check the video in the article. It’s quite informative

TBH if you’re not used to it the steering wheel check can warn frequently. It’s checking for a small amount of torque on the wheel rather than actually holding it (as there are no pressure sensors) and that catches people out but the prompt says to put your hands on the wheel… I could believe 150 times on a long journey.
