Jo Koy Is Thoroughly Enjoying Autopilot On His Tesla Model S
By Paulo Acoba
Comedian Jo Koy took to Instagram to show off just how much he’s enjoying his Tesla Model S with autopilot fully engaged.
Earlier this year around October, Tesla went ahead and unleashed over-the-air update 7.0 to all Tesla Model S owners which enabled Autopilot functions to be activated. As this car is pretty much the darling of Tinseltown (sorry Toyota Prius, you were so 2010) lots of Hollywood’s best actors and comedians in the public eye have been snatching up these high-performance politically correct electric cars, including comedian Jo Koy. Earlier Thursday afternoon Jo Koy went on his usual school run to pick up his son and let the whole world know over Instagram just how awesome this autopilot feature is. Check out his Instagram video post below and see if you can spot what’s wrong.
"Check this out. My son gets out early today so I’m picking him up. I’m not driving! Tesla is life. What!"
If you’ve been following Jo Koy on Instagram you’re probably already clued in that he picked up this Tesla Model S sometime last year in early December and has been thoroughly enjoying his time with it.
Here’s Jo Koy right around the time OTA 7.0 went over the air waves and he first got a taste for autopilot bliss.
Here he is joking around in the driver’s seat as his son asks him when his Adam’s apple will grow in.
Keen-eyed viewers in the know on Tesla’s new autopilot feature will know that the times Jo Koy has shown himself enjoying the autosteer function, both his hands were off the steering wheel which, according to Tesla, isn’t recommended.
"Tesla requires drivers to remain engaged and aware when Autosteer is enabled. Drivers must keep their hands on the steering wheel."
We love your jokes Jo Koy and we’re sure you’re an expert driver, but keep both hands on the steering wheel Josep!
