The car has eight external high resolution cameras, and can literally see things that you can't. And, its reaction time is superhuman. My car received the update this morning, and I don't have a problem with it. While under FSD mode, our car has literally avoided two fatal high-speed crashes that we never saw coming. So, as far as I'm concerned, the car is batting a thousand and we are still alive and safe.
They will definitely have to turn this off to do the Standard Safety Crash Tests. The car would refuse to do the head-on crash test, and try to get out of the way of the side and rear-end crash tests.
It is quite impressive. We have been driving a Y for about 4 months with FSD. I still like to drive the car, but my wife is completely hooked on FSD and has had some interesting situations where lane changers were heading toward her; the car sensed it and moved over at a speed she couldn’t have matched, even if she’d known about the threat. The only situations it couldn’t process were dynamic road construction zones where a construction barrel blew over and rolled across traffic lanes. No biggie.
I don’t drive my Tesla 90% of the time (it keeps these stats) — highway or side streets. FSD is amazing.
At West world, nothing can go wrong
..go wrong
...go wro
Did they fix the bug so the Tesla doesn’t drive into houses?
My son-in-law just got a Tesla last month & we’re all very enamored of what it can do. I can especially see a need for one if you’re elderly like us (73). My daughter OTOH is still having trouble adapting to it. We’ll get one eventually, but I’m still keeping my 2018 Murano SUV until I die.
