A MOTORIST snoozes as his self-driving car cruises on a motorway.

Horrified road users filmed as the Tesla travelled along a freeway in the
San Francisco Bay Area, while the man in charge of it rested his head on the
side window to nap.

take action at all times

Tesla vehicles have an autopilot function, which keeps it traveling at an
appropriate speed compared to other traffic, and keeps the car within its
lane.

But rules state the driver must to be prepared to take control at a moment’s
notice.

A witness, known only as MiloWee who filmed the scene and posted it on
Reddit [

] where it soon went viral, said: “Couldn’t believe it.. asleep in heavy
Friday rush hour traffic in the Bay Area.”

He claimed several other drivers had tried to wake the dozing motorist by
honking their horns, but added: “It worked - but he fell back asleep.”
