I did the best experiment I could do. My wife and I got onto the freeway at 3 am and drove for 54 miles. I set the autopilot following distance to 5. I purposely stayed away at least 100 yards from her vehicle getting to the freeway from my house and returning to my house. No other cars were involved in this experiment as it was 3 am and we stayed in the #2 lane to avoid any possible cars getting on and off the freeway.
The car was not driven for the rest of the day. My safety score went from 95 to 94 the next day when I checked it. The only change was an indication on my daily graph that I had engaged in "unsafe following."
Why would Tesla allow its own system to engage in "unsafe following?" Or is there another reasonable explanation?
