Hello everyone,
My name is Shubham Bhusari and I am a MSc student in TU Delft, Netherlands.
I am currently working on a project in order to understand the conditions and situations in which the autopilot function of Tesla fails along with understanding the drivers trust in the system around edge cases. My objective is to formulate a standard definition of Operational Design Domain for level 2 Automated vehicles across all manufacturers. I aim to do so by first understanding the drivers needs and trust in edge cases through controlled on-road tests and then combine it with objective risk measurements using various scientific methodologies. I focus on Tesla, because it has been in the market for more time than the other manufacturers and from prior studies here at the university, it is seen that they perform the best across various situations. Since safety is of utmost importance in our studies, Tesla was chosen.
With this thread, I wanted to know if anyone of you Tesla owners know a few situations especially on highways where the system performance is ambiguous and thereby affects your trust in the system. Or maybe even specific routes in the Netherlands which could be a candidate route for my road tests?
If yes, Please feel free to mention a few such situations here in this thread, to have a small discussion about them as this would be really helpful for my project.
Looking forward to hear from all of you, as the feedback of experienced drivers like you is very important.
P.S-I have nothing against Tesla or as a matter of fact any vehicle manufacturer and my ultimate aim is to ensure that manufacturers better inform their users which in-turn leads to more road safety over time.
