Hey all, I should be taking delivery late this week or next week, and since I have no experience driving a Tesla yet, figured I’d ask here about some questions.
I live near Buffalo NY where it snows a lot and gets quite cold. Throughout the winter, any vehicle I’ve ever owned with a backup camera has been totally useless in the winter. Either from ice snow or slush from the road, or road salt, the camera is completely coated and can’t see anything out of them.
Speaking specifically about the blind spot cameras, does the MY have any better luck? I’ve heard the blind spots can be quite rough in the MY so I’m a bit concerned about the cameras being covered, and my first experience driving the MY will be during the winter months.
Anyone have any experiences to share with the cameras in these conditions? Most of what I see when searching this topic is about the autopilot or FSD performance related to the cameras. I’m more interested in the actual real visibility for the human when using turn signals and blind spot cameras.
Thanks!
