Main problems with 12.3.4 from an original 10.2 tester(this is on the highway and these problems have been here for a while, so yes, this isn’t really V12, but hear me out)
1. FSD follows ridiculously far on the highway. In heavy traffic doing around 60 mph in the left lane, you can’t leave a ginormous gap between you and the car ahead without getting honked at and passed in the right lane. It also tries way too aggressively to maintain this absurd following distance. When someone passes you on the right, (which, again, is going to happen because they assume YOU are the slow car, when in reality you are just following at an insane distance) and then gets in the left lane in front of you, FSD slams on the breaks in an attempt to maintain this distance. Unusable-disengage.
2. Also on the highway. At night, in dark situations, FSD continuously flashes and sounds an annoying “one or more side cameras are blocked or blinded, wait for visibility” or whatever. EVERY time it comes it makes an annoying “beep beep beep” chime.
I believe I have figured out what causes it. The left fender camera can see cars on the other side of the highway when they are there. However, in the absence of these car’s taillights, the car assumes that the left front fender camera is blocked. When cars appear again, the message goes away. It then returns as soon as these cars pass out of view.
Changing to regular autopilot gives a similar message under the same condition. However, this is an “orange level” message that doesn’t come with a sound so it’s much less annoying . Changing to autopilot is also how I know that the left front fender camera is the one it thinks is blinded. The message autopilot gives tells you the specific camera.
Until this is fixed, FSD is unusable at night on the highway.
