Ok - stup1d question, I know. But seems to be falling through the cracks. All YouTube FSD videos start after it's already on. All instructions and walkthroughs somehow omit this point.
How exactly do you start FSD (on residential streets)?? Do you have to be driving already and double-click the stalk (like you do with autopilot on highway? Or can you be stationary and tell the car "Start driving yourself" by pressing a button on the screen?
I got my FSD couple weeks ago (after waiting couple months due to the car not downloading updates at all). I haven't had time to play with it much since. I only managed to turn it on once and at that point I was almost home already. The car did something ridiculous (stopped at a red light and left so much space in front that you could easily fit another car there), and did one thing right (unprotected left turn, it waited the traffic out and did the turn perfectly) - but that was it. The 2nd time I tried to turn FSD on was at night and raining and it kept screaming for me to take the wheel immediately (and did couple things the looked ridiculous); my wife decided she never wants to see it again. I personally think I need to play with it a lot more. But first things first - what is the exact way to start it?
