did it come with the car or is it aftermarket?
I got one with my car (a Hyundai) recently. Works rather well, although has some false positives once in a while, where it screams that I'm about to hit someone while there's no one near me. Just think about the scale and quality of the data they collect like that!

The collision avoidance systems (I presume OP is speaking about) is aftermarket. That's a small part of Mobileye's business, but it is based on the same technology. BMWs and other high end cars have had Mobileye as OEM for a long time, but the company itself is a bit of a legacy company and not always run well (and is based in Jerusalem which is even more legacy) - but like many Israeli tech stories has great tech.

Thanks, I wasn't aware of Mobileye's aftermarket products. For the curious: http://www.mobileye.com/en-uk/products/mobileye-5-series/ http://www.mobileye.com/en-uk/products/mobileye-6-series/

Let's look at it a different way. The MacBook battery is 55 watt-hours, the Tesla battery is 100 thousand watt hours. They both run their respective workloads for a similar amount of time. So, less than a tenth of a percent?
Don't confuse watts with watt-hours. My math stands.

Which ones did you get? I would like to get one (lane departure add on is intriguing as well and it's like $500 with installation)
It actually probably saved me from a minor accident on my first drive in my brand new car, getting it out of the dealership: It was raining heavily and visibility was crap, and I was a bit distracted finding all the controls and looking for the back window wipers (turns out there aren't any!). And I didn't notice the cars ahead of me stopped. The alarm went off and I hit the brakes (it was very low speed), and everything was fine.
