    FSD Beta Attempts to Kill Me; Causes Accident

    Right! After all, you are still the driver. The ADAS is just providing assistance right now.

    FSD Beta Attempts to Kill Me; Causes Accident

    Interestingly, if this had happened in the UK the governing body (DVSA) which handles safety reports likely wouldn't accept it as a defect. In the eyes of the DVSA, it's an assistance feature aimed to assist the driver, the driver is still in control of the vehicle at all times. I wonder if...

    FSD Beta Attempts to Kill Me; Causes Accident

    This is a really good point. A LOT of people look at individual cases and judge everyone's experience based on that. It's always good to remember that positive content is boring content. Someone posting a video of FSD Beta working flawlessly for hours would get a handful of views on YouTube...

    FSD Beta Attempts to Kill Me; Causes Accident

    It's a really good idea to do some spirited driving in your car to learn the limits and how to handle it in an emergency! Otherwise, it's extremely easy to over-correct and not know how to correct for that.

    2019 Model 3 headlight alignment

    Someone on Reddit just figured out pretty much exactly what causes the issues I described! See their post here: I'll copy the text here though: "Regarding your headlights moving: I know the answer to this!! I'm in Australia with a 2020 3LR. We have basically the same build as the UK. It was...

    2019 Model 3 headlight alignment

    Another update: It seems like each day I drive they're adjusting upwards slightly. They're now just shy of how I'd set them manually in the past. I suppose this is the 'Adjust based on your driving style'? I wonder what it's adjusting them based on...?

    How are 2021+ Model S (aka Palladium) headlights vs other Teslas

    I'd honestly expect to see a new headight design at some point, to match the matrix LED fitted on the 3/Y. Likely using up old stock or having issues with gettng a new headlight design in place due to chip shortage. Who knows. :)

    Headlights adjusted unexpectedly?

    Sorry to raise an old post, buttttt... I can confirm the same. :) Headlight alignment seems to randomly change after running the manual headlight alignment as they were only shining maybe 1 car length ahead, making it next to impossible to drive at speed and see any kind of road debris that...

    21 SR+ headlight too bright?

    A bigggggg warning here as well: When adjusting the headlights manually the new alignment doesn't always save and will randomly revert back to what it was or something completely different. Tesla Service told me when aligning my headlights that they 'adjust based on your driving style', maybe...

    2019 Model 3 headlight alignment

    See that bridge ahead? Wait... What bridge? Ohhh, that bridge! :) Is this anything like what yours was like? I think it'd be less insulting if the auto high beam didn't turn off for literally everything. It's like you're happily driving along, then suddenly blind because a retroreflective...

    2019 Model 3 headlight alignment

    EXACTLY this! In my case, I re-ran the alignment to make the headlights more level, ensuring they'd be below other people's mirrors still. If I ran this on my sloped driving, getting out and back in on flat ground made them point upwards, then if I ran it on flat ground, they'd be pointing down...

    2019 Model 3 headlight alignment

    Hi everyone, I wanted to check with others from the UK with a pre-refresh (No Matrix) Model 3 how their headlights are performing. My car is a 2019 Model 3 Performance, picked up in November 2019. I'd been having some issues with mine where I'd be parked on my sloped driveway, press the brake...

    [UK] 2020.44.x

    Maybe it's a new FSD Beta update for the early access testers? Maybe the one guy with it is Elon? Who knows. :p

    Supercharging an American Tesla in Europe

    Sorry, worded it wrong, I mean outside of home charging I only use Superchargers. Charging at stores is usually impractical as you gain so little charge in the maybe 30 minutes you're in a store for. I run down to 20% and charge back to 90% at home to avoid too much degradation. :)

    Supercharging an American Tesla in Europe

    Ahhh, that's a good point! I totally forgot about AC charging at actual chargers, at least here in the UK, you're never really charge at anything but a Supercharger as they're so common. I think we can get 22kw max out of AC, limited by the onboard charger in the Model 3.
