I wonder how it's visible to the outside if you are driving or the car is driving - you almost want some sort of an external indicator that the car is in FSD mode, something like the dog mode warning won't work - as your car will get pulled over first before they notice the display.Depending on the length of the drive, you could either continue drinking on the way home or sleep it off and arrive at your destination sober again

Realistically, unless the manual controls can be completely locked out (or removed), you will not be able to drive while drunk under any circumstances. Too great a chance that you might do something stupid and take over from the driving AI.
Got an email - "tentative for the week of the 23rd." in Melbourne.PANIC - Just missed my call from delivery, now I can't get through to return it!
SR+ Silver,
Black Int
No FSD
VIN 4490XX
Reserved in May 2019
Ordered 19/6/2019
They had better not be teasing me, or I will..... continue waiting.

Yeah, you'd almost need something like the speed limiter mode, where you're unable to take control over from the car at all..
"Drunk Mode" - In conjunction with a safety interlock. Instead of the car not starting it just refuses to let you drive. The display just has one huge button marked HOME.
And the car plays a sound track of whinging and whining about how it is feeling neglected that it has to drive itself, and how bad drinking is....
Or "Drunk Wingman Mode". The car says reassuring things like, "Nah mate, you were fine. You didn't embarrass yourself in front of those girls. Nah, they DID think you were funny. And no one heard you snoring in the movie. Don't be embarrassed."

Stupid question...
How do I email the sales and delivery people in Brisbane?
I reserved Sep 2017, ordered Day1, red P- cash. Have a VIN and heard nothing.
I'm supposed to be on a quick relaxing holiday in NZ and I'm worried about mobile coverage.
I need help!

There’s another potential FSD issue - the car must know to pull over when indicated to at a booze bus location. Another example of police hand signal recognition. I would call this Level 5, but it occurs typically in urban areas in what is considered Level 4 (because it’s far more ‘structured’ than non-urban)
They have more chance than any other car of doing that. (not mine, it's only AP1...)
Judging from other posts it sounds like if you miss the call they just shoot you an e-mail. If you can get on wifi a couple times each day you should be fine.
No real issues once level 5 FSD becomes a reality. All situations are catered for (as the worldwide fleet has been in shadow mode prior) and with 30 trillion calculations per second and all cars connected to the worldwide fleet I can't imagine a scenario where if it doesn't know and no other vehicle knows and using a quantum computing decision as a last resort, it actually ends up worse off than if a human was driving.
How's that for faith in the system! Now when's those M3's being rolled out?
Go. Relax. Maybe a bit of skiing. Maybe when you get back Tesla will have scheduled your delivery!

Yeah but if he misses the September window, he's looking at a December delivery!
;-)
Mostly kidding, but when I said I'd be away on the 23rd of Sep for a bit, I was asked when was the latest in September that I could take delivery. Implication clear - and then qualified that she couldn't guarantee I'd get this vehicle if I didn't take it in Sep', meaning waiting for another (not that I'm attached to this VIN, couldn't care less).
Finally got the call
Week of 23rd tentative delivery window
Melbourne P- day 1 res / Day 1 order.
Rep confirmed that a small number of cars needed something done with a part associated with the 12v battery, but those all sorted now, only affected a small number and they were the ones who had August deliveries rolled into Sept,
Res date and order date don’t mean a thing as far as they are concerned, it’s all about getting the cars out within the framework of third parties and shipping / transportation logistics. So I guess we could have held onto our $1500 all this time
In any case, it means that I can get on with life for a bit
