70-year-old woman panics trying self-driving car for first time

A video of a 70-year-old woman panicking while trying Tesla’s self-driving car for the first time has gone viral.

According to Electrek.co, Tesla owner William Rimmer decided to give his mother a taste of the car’s autopilot feature.

"There’s no question that autopilot works. Of course, that doesn’t mean that everyone is comfortable taking their hands off the wheel,” BGR.com explained.

To say the mum panics is an understatement! She begs her son to let her put her hands back on the wheel so she can wrest control back from the machine.

Watch the clip and tell us, would you dare try a self-driving car?
