Red Light/Stop Sign...Autopilot (No FSD)

[J-HevA]

Hi Everyone,

MY Newbie here and was hoping you can advise. I have Auto-Steer (Beta) Turned on along with Visualization. Adaptive cruise and auto steer work fine but it does not stop at Red-Light and Stop Sign. For some reason I thought AutoPilot included these features. Or is it just a part of FSD? I’m on the latest software version: 2020.32.3

Thank you!

• Autopark: Helps automatically parallel or perpendicular park your car, with a single touch
• Summon: Moves your car in and out of a tight space using the mobile app or key
• Smart Summon: Your car will navigate more complex environments and parking spaces, maneuvering around objects as necessary to come find you in a parking lot.

...part of FSD...

If you can look up the manual, Autopilot is only designed for a "controlled access road" or "limited-access roads" or freeways with no traffic lights.

Since it's designed to work on freeways with no traffic lights, there's no need to provide the "Controlled Traffic Lights and Signals" feature for those who don't pay for FSD.

Can you use the cruise control as 'normal', or does it only work in 'Traffic Aware' mode?

Nowadays, all Tesla listed on its web site have a minimum of Autopilot so when you activate the "cruise", it's TACC, not just a simple cruise.

However, if you manage to buy "off-menu" a $35,000 Short Range Model 3, it comes without any Autopilot so if you activate its cruise, it's a simple cruise, not TACC.

Thank you....it looks like I might pay the $8k to upgrade. Most of my driving these days is local roads vs highway and while I love autopilot...getting annoying to disengage and re-engage at every light...unless I’m behind someone...

Im getting tired of disengaging and reengaging as well. Can you buy me FSD too? Its only 8k

...getting annoying...

That's my philosophy too: If I have the money to avoid an annoying issue, I would!

I have FSD and when I have auto steer and TACC engaged, it still slows down at a green light. Kind of annoying.

If Elon's comment on Twitter that FSD is about to see a quantum leap in capability, now is the time to drop the $8K for FSD before it goes up. It's risen steadily since it first came out.

As long as there is a lead car in front of you it will not slow. It’s still learning for now which I view as comforting rather then guessing personally.

if you pre ordered the Y at launch FSD was $6k

But you had to give Tesla a $2500 interest free loan for how long?

accurate! 16 months! cost of money is low tho

And how much money would you have made if you charged tesla 3% interest on that loan?

 

[DaveORD]

I would have used that money to buy stock instead... Let's see $275 a share back then on reveal day (before the 5:1 split), worth about $1000 per share at the time when my MY was delivered (also before the split), so my $2500 would have been worth $9000 say, so a profit of $6500, almost enough to pay for FSD...

You guys are looking at it all wrong. I did a road trip to Vegas and didn't gamble. Instead, I used that $8k I could have blown at the casinos and got FSD. Now, I get to relax and let the car continue to drive me to Vegas and back. Sounds like I came out on top!

hindsight is 20/20 . I got in a year ago... so... The Y is fully funded
