Does Autopilot recognize Potholes?

[Jbequer]

How is this possible? Is this a real thing?
I noticed while on Autopilot, there are certain areas on the freeway where the car moves to either side, and puts the existing potholes in the center of the car to avoid running them over. At first i thought it was just a lucky miss, but it does this every single time daily. It moves pretty far to avoid them.

Is this a real thing that Tesla gets information from other Tesla's on road conditions? If so, this would be great for reporting traffic and weather conditions on a route similar to Waze.

I hope this is an up and coming update, but then again, how is it doing this every time with the potholes?

I found this: Tesla vehicles are now scanning for potholes and rough roads to help avoid them

I suspect some were Teslas on autopilot.

Mine recognizes all pothole and manhole covers and heads straight for them.

you realise that autopilot as such is just TACC + lane assistant?

My 2023 Tesla vision only Model 3 has never made an attempt to avoid a pothole thus far.
