Trying to be positive with each release, all I want is phantom braking to be gone, rest can take time to evolve. My girl doesnāt even use AP on her MYLR because of phantom braking. I donāt know why Elon swears by vision only. I had 0 AP issues with radar, it all started on FSD with vision only.

Unfortunately Phantom braking will be the last to be gone .. ofcourse they can reduce it a great deal progressively ...
Itās just so frequent, some roads the phantom braking happens every 10 seconds or so

I could care less about a holiday release but damn Elonā¦.. get your timelines right

And there is itā¦ the tweet that comes way after the expected timeline that itās still coming, sometime later than planned!
that is so accurate. With these holiday releases it would be nice to see them before family time, but in practice even if I get it tomorrow I probably will be spending time with family, opening presents, eat too much chocolate to do more than maybe read the release notes - so somewhere between "A little" and Zero
I feel likeā¦. The holidays happen at the same time every yearā¦. Maybe have the holiday release ready a week before the holidays? 
I'd love to see a video of this (not saying its not happening, just be good to try to gauge how bad it is).

I've hit those kind of stretches where every 10 sec there's phantom breaking as well. And it's repeatable at the same time of day. Seems like the shadows fool it.

I can also confirm in my neighborhood on a 35 mph 1 mile stretch, I get no less than 8 slowdowns in either direction. At night it go down to around 3. Lead cars or none. Driving me nutz.... pun intended
Iāll work on a GoPro video of dash and road, maybe someone can make some correlation. At first I thought it was tree shadows but now Iām not even sure anymore.
The whimsical hesitations do happen a lot. but they are pretty mild. I'm starting to tune them out and so have my passengers. Some people call this phantom braking, which i think is justified, but I think the really forceful braking is a safety issue that should get higher priority for fixing than these gentle slowdowns.
I'll also say that trying to get whimsical hesitations on video is next to impossible. Not because it's hard to be recording while one happens, it's that visually the deceleration is impossible to see, and the speed rarely drops 1mph. It's something you feel.
For example, going from slightly accelerating to zero accelerating (the whimsical hesitation), and then resume slightly accelerating, you feel it acutely, but the speedometer will show a number that was slightly increasing over time to holding steady for less than a second, and then slightly increasing again. And you're not going to notice that by watching how fast the bushes are going by.
