Great. Perhaps I am beta testing more than just FSD. I think the difficulty of this whole endeavor cannot be overstated. Lots of complexity and chaos.

What about us FSD beta testers? Are we exposed to any additional liabilities? Anything not covered by our insurance policies?

It’s the best of both worlds: the car drives itself like a responsible adult but you can still gun it like a teenager on the green light and leave everyone else behind in the dust (streets have speed limits but no acceleration limits).

Use it all the time. Miami. Heavy traffic. Crazy drivers (they don’t know it, but are about to learn that they cannot intimidate a robot). Also use the accelerator all the time. I don’t know why one wouldn’t. When it’s going slow I give it a nudge. Obviously it’s not a perfect drive every...

And, most importantly, posted about how you didn’t use FSD beta to better inform us all how FSD beta works.

I’ve read a lot of funny things about FSD on this forum but let me get this straight. These are a couple of guys telling an online group, made overwhelmingly of men, that FSD beta, which is overwhelmingly designed and used by men, is somehow bad because some women don’t like it? Like if my...

Already more and more cities are designating car-free areas. The future belongs to self-driving trucks and buses (not so sexy eh?). No one, including Waymo, is trying to lower the cost of self-driving cars — they’re not a scalable solution. Ultimately, self-driving vehicles will bring the end...

This is an example of “price discovery”. What is price discovery and how does it work? One difference between you and Elon Musk is that he has engaged in price discovery and has established a market for FSD beta. You find it amazing, Elon has found a source of revenue. You find it...

It used to work. I impressed a lot of people with it. It’s broken now. That kind of disappointment is an unintended consequence of over-the-air updates.

What are the chances that one will actually be able to drive across the US/Canada border using FSD or using FSD in another country?

Yes reading the article was like reading about how the process of riding an elevator was an unbelievably complicated ritual of another civilization — complete with videos on how sometimes, an elevator can get stuck between floors!!! I can hardly wait for the next installment: “international...

I have been having this problem often. Yes the reset with scroll buttons with or without the brake fixes the problem. But what is going on? It almost sounds like the audio is being rerouted from the front speaker to the boombox.

Perhaps you haven’t found the pedal to the right of the brake pedal. In a Tesla, if you step on this pedal, the cars behind you will disappear. I highly recommend it. I find that this pedal is key to my enjoyment of FSD nearly 100% of the time I drive.

This is true — in the driver’s moving frame of reference: the car was not moving with respect to other cars driving at the freeway speed limit. Then all of a sudden (as they applied the brakes) the Tesla quickly moved away from those cars affording the sensation that the Tesla “suddenly and...

The sooner you buy the sooner your price per ride can start going down😜 For my first week of FSD, each drive had an average cost of about $500! That was totally worth it to scare the crap out of my brother. I love FSD and use it every time I drive. I usually keep my cars as long as I can. If...
