Auto Steer Beta sudden lane change to evade bird shadows

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Driving the two lane highway through Everglades National Park in Auto Steer Beta, my Model Y twice forcibly swerved into the oncoming lane (yikes!) when a bird crossed the road, high in the air. I believe the camera saw the bird’s dark shadow on the sunlit pavement as the bird passed high over the road. The first time was an osprey, a large bird, but it did it again for a cardinal a few minutes later. I have logged about 2000 miles in Auto Steer and this is the first and second time it made this mistake, and for me, the last.
