I suspect that the wide release will also stop at green lights (doesn't it stop at all intersections?).I think this is exactly why @verygreen felt that this particular behavior will ONLY be released to early access.
I think (hope?) even Tesla realizes that stopping for green lights isn’t something that the average customer can react to and overrule reliably, so they’ll keep this rollout limited until they can be more confident about green light behavior.
I know if I got this early update, I’d have a few routes I’d like to use it on for fun, but imagine this would get mentally exhausting if you used it daily. Add to the fact that it won’t “navigate” (take turns), it’s really only useful in limited circumstances, so I suspect this is mostly a “data gathering” release.
I think all the data for this feature could be collected in shadow mode. How is this different than comparing the driver's reaction to intersections to the light detection neural net running in the background?
I don't think people getting rear ended will be an issue, there will be plenty of honking to train the driver's neural net.
