I wonder, perhaps a bit of a long bow to stretch, maybe?

‘BlueCruise’ system allows motorists to use self-driving without touching the steering wheel
"Ford has launched Britain’s first hands-free
self-driving car system after securing permission from the Department for Transport to allow motorists to let go of the steering wheel on motorways.
The company will charge £17.99-a-month to owners of its electric Mustang Mach-E vehicle for access to its “BlueCruise” system, which will drive the vehicle for motorists and allow them to take their hands off the wheel.
Once enabled, BlueCruise will allow drivers to travel at speeds of up to 70 miles per hour on UK roads, using radar and cameras to adjust speed, steer on bends and change position in a driving lane. Drivers will be monitored using an infrared camera to ensure they are paying attention to the road.
The system will be able to adapt to variable speed limits and come to a complete halt in traffic jams. It can adjust its position in the lane, for example when a large vehicle is passing, but not change lanes.
If a driver takes their eyes off the road, the system will show warning messages and audible alerts before slowing down the vehicle."
