Yes we are. You just won’t admit it. You might as well erase self parking from that because it’s a feature that’s working it’s way down the price chain now. The Google car is doing it your list, a few of the other ones in the test phase. The Tesla car does the least BUT it’s out and available to consumers.
It’s not just demonstration project TESLA IS ON THE MARKET. You can BUY a car that can do most of your list RIGHT NOW. That’s a demonstration project. And they aren’t alone:

Fact is you’re wrong. Your prediction of what will never happen ALREADY HAS. The only question now is when will they be in mass production. BI agrees with me. History agrees with me. Only you don’t agree with me, and well, not to be rude, but that’s your problem not mine.
Once again:
“The vehicle performs all safety-critical functions for the entire trip, with the driver not expected to control the vehicle at any time. As this vehicle would control all functions from start to stop, including all parking functions, it could include unoccupied cars.”
Tesla doesn’t come close...and the Google project is the poster child for s demonstration project. Take the drivers out of them and it will be real, but not before.
