During adverse environmental conditions?

I wouldn't trust it not to run me down on a clear day, since that's when most of the incidents of Teslas on "autopilot" running into parked emergency vehicles occurred. It would be nice to think you only had to worry at night or in a heavy rainstorm, or when you are biking in the same lane as traffic versus in a bike lane where cars are not supposed to drive, but you would be justified in worrying EVERY time a Tesla in "autopilot" went by.
