Yup, good thing you figured that out all by yourself, cause my arm isn't that long to smack the bank of your head and yell "Schmuck"!!!!!

There is an alignment procedure that the service center can do in that case. There is some tolerance for slight misalignment (I remember reading that they corp out the edge of the sensor to adjust for slight misalignments).My 2013 Model S does not have Auto Pilot ; my question is just out of curiosity.
I would assume Model S as well as other cars with auto pilot would depend on multiple cameras strategically positioned and aligned. Considering the condition of roads, particularly Freeze/thaw states, it is likely that some of these cameras would be out of alignment over a period of time. Would that be a major issue or concern? A small misalignment could cause major shift in focus or area of coverage!
Wow. First time seeing the O{P video. Personally, I would never try it in an area like that with no lines on the right. Even if I did, after it failed the first time, I sure wouldn't try it a second, third, fourth, etc more times. That's asking for trouble.
I think when you have too many things taking up your attention, you’re bound to ignore the things that made you special in the first place. At the moment, Elon is focused on the getting out of Model 3 production hell, the upcoming launch of the semi and building the recently announced supercharging in urban cities. While both latter efforts are admirable and shows that Tesla is versatile and ambitious, it also risks putting other key areas in the back burner and not get the undivided attention they need
FSD is a prime example of this. After the setback with MobilEye, Autopilot should have been the primary focus for Tesla. However, we’re just starting to see a lot of data gathering from AP 2.0 and that staff trying to recruit more people to their team. Thus, even basic stuff like rain sensing wipers is still not implemented and AP 2.0 is still not at parity with AP 1. With such slow improvements being made on EAP, it’s suffice to say FSD won’t be available for many years to come in spite of Elon’s overreach sometimes and it’s not state regulations that will impede its progress
Supercharging is another area where Tesla already made great strides in by rapidly expanding the coverage across US and now focusing on urban areas. Despite this, I can’t help but wonder if that revenue would be better spent in coming up with even faster rate of charging akin to Porsche’s 15 minute to almost full charge. This will not only eradicate current supercharger congestion (which will only be exacerbated by the incoming influx of Model 3’s) but also drive more potential buyers to EV’s who find the wait periods of charging to be a potential dealbreaker
There are other areas that Tesla can also work on such as offering better premium interior package but the autonomous driving is an absolute key focus that they need to give the most support to, as they’re still advertising FSD and even charging for it when in reality, they’re nowhere near close to achieving it. Otherwise, Tesla risks losing the autonomous race as well as supercharging to other automakers whose focus is diverting to solely making EV’s and that would be a shame after all the progress it has already made in those areas.
better yet implement complete FSD and take the moron component out of the equationThey need to remove the accelerator pedal in all cars immediately! Someone may press it, and the car will become a DANGEROUS 5000 LB MISSILE!
Despite this, I can’t help but wonder if that revenue would be better spent in coming up with even faster rate of charging akin to Porsche’s 15 minute to almost full charge
The OP video looks similar to what happened to me on the 91 westbound at 9 PM in the last month. I look forward to the problem being solved after the 90D is returned from the service center. Driving the original P85 for now; manual steering and superior acceleration makes me feel young again! The RWD EV is much quieter around town. If AP2 continues to act up, the 90D may be the EV to trade in.
You have to be a fool to think Autopilot is self-sufficient
Of course I reported it, I was on the phone with Tesla at Fremont when it happened! Within a couple of weeks, they called to request that I bring the 2017 MS 90D in for service. No anomaly found. I posted the results in a post here: Autopilot 2.0 is dangerousI hope you reported this to Tesla. If they're not aware of car attempting to murder you, they're not going to be able to stop this from happening. But even if they're aware, they may not be aware of the severity of the issue until you explain it to them. For all our sake, report it.
