Couple of interesting things happened today.
First I had a near accident. For once, it wasn't FSD trying to rush into roundabout when another car was coming. Some driver next to me on the left lane realized late that he needed to turn right and without looking tried to change lanes. He was a little behind me - so may be didn't notice my car. In anycase a honk and quick evasive move saved the day.
Second on an empty street - that I take atleast a couple times a week - FSD suddenly slammed on the brake. May be it saw a shadow (kind of newish around here, now that we are into spring).
One nice thing about v12 is that on new roads with wrong speed limit (50 mph on a residential road with no lines !), FSD goes slow and cautiously. Earlier I had to disengage since moving from 50 to 25 would take time .... and there was a lot of construction activity to let the car speed up even for 100 ft.
