We first saw the news over on Electrek. Tesla declined to comment, but Lyft confirmed Qureshi joined the team this week. > At Lyft, Qureshi is now director of product for autonomous driving, specifically focused on Lyft’s Level 5 self-driving car efforts. To be clear, Level 5 is when a car requires no human to be at the wheel. In fact, Level 5 prohibits humans from intervening, even if they want to.
