The thing to remember is even if it's the same route, it's functionally a different road on the way back because you're driving the opposite direction. The other thing I've noticed is that it depends if you're following someone. There are some areas I drive where FSD does fine if it's on its own but if I'm following a car it will veer into the turn lane. It seems backwards but I assume it's because the car obscures the view of the lanes further up so the car defaults to the right turn land rather than the straight lane.Has anyone else experience Jeckel and Hyde? Quick trip to the store, Almost perfect on the way there (correct lanes, nice and smooth, turned nicely into the parking lot of the store.) I did have to control speed slightly, but very nice!
On the way back, veered suddenly and quickly to the right (trying to get two lanes over to the right) on a left turn as I approached the turn leaving the parking lot. Then, the car tried to take an exit ramp onto a highway when the directions were to go straight. THEN, the car tried to go after stopping at a red light (with the light still red.)
Whew! Keeps you on your toes, I have to say. I love being a beta tester!
On a positive note, I just got back from dropping our Subaru off for an oil change (I know, the irony - using my Tesla to take an ICE car to get the oil changed!) 20 mile round trip driven nearly flawlessly. There were a couple of turns that were slightly jerky and a few times it accelerated a bit quickly coming out of a turn but really quite overall good and truly zero interventions, not even goosing the accelerator.
