So seeing the vast improvements with v12, and NEVER HAVING FSD before. I rented it yesterday and at 11.4.9 Beta.
As someone who used to race, and seeing videos of FSD I’ve never thought it was ready.
I HOPE to get v12 beta in the month rental to try.
All that said, my experience with current version was downright scary and dangerous. I have a 2023 M3P.
I made sure all cameras were completely cleaned and drove out on a completely clear day today.
First right turn onto a highway where traffic was doing ~55mph. It attempted to pull out in front of a car WAY too late I had to stop it.
Then on that road, it jumps right into a lane to turn off for no reason as there were clear marks and we weren’t making a right hand turn.
A little later, when coming up on a stop light and fist in line is braked late even though the light was red for a while…then once almost stopped hit the gas, had I not been vigilant would have driven into the intersection.
This happened AGAIN at another light.
Simply turning left in a left hand lane, where there were curbs, no in coming traffic it really had no idea what to do and appeared it would go over the curb.
I had a couple instances of fantom braking as well.
All of these to me, are extremely dangerous. I’ve kept up with a lot of FSD videos, especially v12 and hopeful, however even having this installed as is, and attempting to use it even being very attentive still increases the risk of an accident.
Just thought I’d share, and honestly although earlier versions of FSD clearly had challenges. I did NOT EXPECT 11.4.9 to be this untrustworthy. I’m excited to try v12 and hopefully before the month ends.
