2020.12.5.6: Traffic Light & Stop Sign Control

[Garlan Garner]

Exactly.

Folks are hoping that if the discussion of other things wasn’t happening here, technical things might.

Could be possible. I wouldn't disagree with that.

You have been here a long long time.

Have you seen the confidentiality agreement? What do you think about the technical discussion vs. the agreement?

I have never been presented such an agreement, and never been in any early access program.

I’m generally much more interested in the technical content and discussion, but both can be important discussions to have.

More stoplight examples in 2020.12.5.6 (longer video and it's not by me)

Great video. What percentage of lights did it react too? Was it 100% and also do you find it nags more frequently around traffic lights and stop signs?

Now that is scary! Imagine if you could not grab it time and someone was in the way. It's only matter of time before we hear of people getting run over (assuming it hasn't happened already). I'm afraid to even use it in my driveway. Even with the continuous press, there could still be a glitch that causes the car not to stop even after losing communication.

At least when inside the car, the driver can still hit the brakes. Outside, one is putting total trust in a computer. There's a video on Youtube with a smart summoned Model 3 taking a longer route in the opposite direction. There was hardly anyone around, but it's not hard to imagine it trying to navigate a crowded area on its own. Crazy.

Right and that is the reason I don't use the click to start and clip to start. Sure, I imagine there could always be some strange quirk for the car not to stop if communication is lost on a continuous click, but I am VERY familiar with the programming of that process and it is a tiny probability. Again, for me, it is not fully reason for primetime, so it is a rare occasion I use it. Lots of people use it successfully though.

Not always true. When I first got my 3 I wrote about my Summon experience and how the "low battery" prompt on the iPhone popped up and overrode the release to stop function. The modal in the phone took priority over the app and the app didnt realize I took my finger off the button because low battery popped up.

right, and agree. I am talking about loss of communication from the phone to the Tesla server.

You shouldn't have the same issue using the fob, since it is local and BT based.

yes, perfect. And that is why I use the fob more.

Traffic Light and Stop Sign Controls now appears to be out of Early Access with 2020.12.6: Currently being updated to 2020.12.6 : teslamotors

 

[diamond.g]

Wonder if it still stuck at posted speed.

Wonder if it still stuck at posted speed.

According to this poster 2020.12.6 2020.12.6 also limits non-divided highways to the speed limit.

 

[Nirmaljal]

This is just for Early Access. It is NOT for wide release.

I am not part of EAP... just got 2020.12.6 installed.. It has traffic light and stop sign recognition.... itching to try it out... though it requires latest map data to download.... not sure now when the map data will download....with less traffic on roads because of stay-at-home orders.. it is the best time to try out this feature....

 

[turns2stone]

Got mine updated, whoo-hoo!

 

[Iain]

Great, now I’ll have to check my app every few minutes.

TACC it is then, lol.

 

[The_Observer]

For everyone that doesn't have FSD that got updated to 12.6 recent, does the new feature work for you?

 

[Nirmaljal]

Just took it for a spin...works like a charm.

 

[SulSustain]

Just downloaded 2020/12.6 on my Model 3. Includes Traffic Light & Stop Sign Control. I'm not part of the early access program.

Assume this is FSD only?

Also limits it to speed limit for TACC too.

I think this was included for the early folks with enhanced autopilot but not the recent folks with included autopilot. You do have to have Hardware 3 autopilot I would assume though.
