My 2018 Tesla Dual Motor Model 3 drove 45.9 miles on the Blue Ridge Parkway between Thunder Hill Overlook, just east of Blowing Rock, all the way to Bearwallow Gap south of Little Switzerland. I did adjust the maximum speed to accommodate visibility due to fog as Autopilot doesn't know to just slow down- it will shut off if it can't see far enough for the speed. However, by lowering the maximum speed to what I'd want to drive anyway, Autopilot remains engaged. Other than that, all steering, braking, acceleration, etc. is done by the car and not me. (Tesla people, this is HW3 running 2020.16.2.1)
16:11 Green Mountain Viaducts (and potholes…)
22:11 Boulder Field Viaducts
25:24 World Famous Linn Cove Viaduct (main viaduct is over 400yds long)
31:03 Sharp Curves
34:23 Intense Fog
39:29 Wrecker Backing into Lane
43:37 Sharp Curve
49:33 Extremely Sharp Curve
51:40 Spiral Curve
53:37 Spiral Curve
54:31 Bear Den Overlook Sharp Curves
57:31 Slowing for Vehicle
1:02:07 Slowing for Vehicle Leaving Parkway
1:15:16 Little Switzerland Tunnel
1:18:43 Final Curves before Autopilot Failure
