Tesla says:

> As such, Summon requires that you continually monitor your vehicle's movement and surroundings while it is in progress and that you remain prepared to stop the vehicle at any time using your key fob or mobile app or by pressing any door handle.

Let's consider the choices. Key fob? Might be in your pocket. App? Has anyone from Tesla tried to use the Tesla app? It frequently takes literally minutes to respond. What if you try to press the door handle and the [expletive removed] door handle sensor doesn't notice? (The latter happens all the time with my car. It usually works when I press very hard on it, which might be a challenging thing to do when the semi-autonomous car is moving.)

This crap makes my glad my Tesla is too old to support their beta autopilot.
