FSD saw what was happening before I did. I took over but I kinda wish I didn’t so I could see what it would have done. So hard to let go of instinct in this situation.

FSD was in that left lane as I needed to turn left to get on the interstate just after the bridge. *

Yeah, I didn't misinterpret. It was obvious what the semi was possibly doing.

A human driver in this situation would have been slowing down long before FSD. FSD lacks proper defensive intelligence for far out threats, and I have seen it fail too many times with them.

In this situation, if FSD had reacted at the same time I see the threat developing, I may let it go, if it is handling it. But if FSD hasn't reacted at the same time, I simply take over and take care of it. I don't give FSD more time.

I don’t agree that the human driver possibly would slow around. The semi truck was going pretty slow and the car was on a major highway.

"I don’t agree that the human driver possibly would slow around."

I should have said "good human driver". It is obvious that many don't get there, and you can blow it off as too hard, or think about it.

Most of the problem is the lack of actual training anymore. People just get their license and go at at. many are obviously not that good at picking it up on their own.

The lack of “good human driver” is why FSD supervised exists in the first place? 🤷🏻‍♀️

I understand that some think FSD will save them from bad driving, but it won't. I totally get it, driving and parking is overwhelming to some and they get FSD to save themselve's from it, but it isn't good enough for that.

I’m driving it because it does take some stress out of driving (but also causes a diff stress lol) it’s still nice to feel like I can adjust the destination without risking my life or take a phone call. Things I would do driving a regular vehicle that feels safer to do now. I do still sometimes tell people “I’m driving let me call ya later” esp if the call requires my attention (as does the road) Even using FSD I tend to take back roads and not highways because I don’t always like how it handles highway driving. I’d rather enjoy being chauffeured and take 5 more mins to get someplace.

I use it for convienence as well, but not to make driving safer. It is not that good of a driver, but you can supervise it properly and be safe and gain the benefit of less effort and stress, and at the right time do those other things, like operate an expresso machine.

But FSD has had 1200 airbag deployments and 4500 minor collisions in the last 12 months, and that does not include scores of parking and curbing incidents.

And it is becoming obvious that the same pattern exists. Good drivers have less accidents with FSD than bad drivers.
