FSD: how to keep car in carpool lane?

+1. This is what I also do to minimize lane changes even on surface streets but it's not 100% effective of course.

Yep, it’s by far the best way if you want to just cruise.

AFAIK, this has been fixed. The bigger problem is when you’re using FSD beta, you’re in a left-side HOV lane, and your route demands a right-side exit. FSD will not exit the HOV lane to make the exit, ignore nav and keep going. Nav will go nuts trying to re-route, but you ultimately have to cancel FSD & manually drive to your destination.

+1, I have to manually exit the HOV lane and then re-engage FSD.

Does FSD trigger the right turn blinker and try to change lane
because there is a car in front of you but the lane next to you is empty?

If so, you can cancel the move by pushing back the blinker stalk.
But you could also, in your settings, disable the auto lane change and make it manual.

Yes. But more importantly keep thr car at speed limit and use chill mode.

Still broken for me with FSD beta. Constantly tries to exit the HOV lane for no reason when my exit is not for miles and miles. Sometimes even when a freeway change in the HOV lane is possible. I report it every time.

Under “Navigation”, do you have “Use HOV Lanes” enabled?

Proper HOV lane use, school zones, school busses, and many other scenarios aren't optimized or even programmed into FSD, yet.

Many hope these are fixed with V12.

I experienced problems with FSD and HOV lanes a year to two years ago. If I had FSD activated and HOV lane use not selected, the vehicle would not stay in the lane next to the HOV lane. I complained a lot, and that bug finally got fixed recently.

More recently, FSD won't exit a left-side HOV lane for a right exit that's part of the planned route. This is an HOV lane that has a single-line boundary. The vehicle will just keep going in the HOV lane and replan for the next right side exit to continue the route, then also miss that exit. I have yet to test the current version of FSD (11.4.9) for this bug.
