I've seen the BMW system misread physical temporary speed limit signs left by work men on the side of the road
Back when I had MS with previous Mobile Eye AP there is a sign on A1 South (bit north of Peterborough AFAICR) which has a 50 Circle, and then under that "In 1/2 mile". Confusing for cars behind me when car slammed on the brakes!
I've had it brake in scenarios where I wouldn't expect it to, but the reason has always been apparent
Yup ... but I also, occasionally, get it braking approaching to pass a big juggernaut. To my eye same colour, size, road position, sun angle, day-light strength
as all the other juggernauts I have passed that day.
If I took a 17 year old out for their first drive I would be able to anticipate every daft thing that were likely to do. With AI my concern is that I have no intuition, at all, for when it might do something weird. There are a few near misses, where I have taken over, where something was "poking out into my lane". After recent storm a tree which came down had been cut off a foot into!! the road; White Van Man parked 90% on the pavement. And then I also have
"I'm not sure about this I'm just going to brake heavily" for no reason that I can fathom (for me that's not very common). The rest of the time, I'm amazed at what it recognises and deals with.
I love going out on bins day. The dash visualisation shows every wheelie bin along the pavement as a "threat"
I'm constantly having to long press the right stalk or tap the speed limit sign to adjust. It definitely doesn't work consistently like the BMW system.
I wonder if there is a setting? Although ... I can't think of one. I have this behaviour (on A-Road slow down from 60 for a 30, and speed back up when leaving the limit) on all the cars on my account (
family members), MS, M3 and MY and with FSD, EAP and AP amongst those. Although I'm pretty sure I've read of others who have not had AP adapting to speed limits correctly (albeit a while ago) so there may be something that needs fiddling with.
the geofenced BMW window open feature
Before I used TelaFi I used something similar (name escapes me, the site no longer exists) where you could draw a polygon outline on a map (e.g. the roads around where you park to drop off Sprog for After School Activity) and it would do things like "Keep climate on" if you parked there. Supermarket carpark too ... that was before the car had CAMP mode. And of course scheduled charging at Home remembers the charging hours cheap-rate for that location, all good stuff.
TeslaFi has geofence location as well (but its a circle, not a polygon, good enough for most situations / car parks). I have it scheduled to turn climate on if at work, shortly before I would normally leave. Also, the work charger sometimes trips, really annoying to find out only at the end of the day, so I have alerts if plugged in; at work; and charge level is less than X% at 13:00, Y% at 14:00 etc.
When I was commuting to work it would drop the charge limit 10% at start of overnight off peak, and raise it again (and start charging if stopped) just the right amount of time before end of cheap rate to be at desired level - which also gave me a warm battery in winter.
Can't imagine what I ever did before I had all this complexity, choice and opportunity!
I remember when central locking came in being able to give up my original chivalrous behaviour of opening my passenger's door for them ...
