Why does the shift knob rotate past Drive?

My question is why did mine shift to reverse on its own yesterday morning. I had my foot on the brake, but both hands in my coat pocket because I was so cold. Next thing I know it’s making the reverse beeping sound and the light was on R. It was weird. Thought I got the Tesla model S upgrade where the AI decides which way you want to go.

edit: before anyone piles on, yes, I could have bumped it or something. It only happened once so I haven’t been able to verify it. Odds are it was me, but there was enough of a gap in time that made it so weird. I sat therefor a few seconds trying to warm to before I heard the backup beeping.

Weird….and disconcerting! In my case i know it is operator error, but in yours that seems less likely.

Truth is they took the engineer in charge of putting the stops in off the Shift knob team and reassigned him to the Frunk button team.
