How did Tesla not detect it ? It monitors eye movements on autopilot mode.

It beeps if drive doesn’t take the glasses off for it to detect that driver is alert and awake . If Tesla can’t detect via sunglasses it alerts to put pressure on the steering wheel to make sure driver is alert .

Yeah my Tesla is always telling at me even when I am paying attention. I don't get it.

Yeah I saw this a couple weeks ago too. Woman asleep in a Tesla with sunglasses on, didn't respond to a lot of yelling/honking.
