The Cancer that is Phantom Braking

[powertoold]

I still have my doubts. Phantom braking is a complex issue that becomes exponentially more complex as they continue to add "features" that involve braking. Traffic controls, pedestrian paths, cones, trash bins, cyclists, emergency braking, speed signs, etc. etc. all can potentially lead to phantom braking.

Well, it is only one report by a self proclaimed fan boy!
So, probably needs way more confirmation.
But there is hope!

I can't say much about phantom braking per se - but unexpected cross traffic on city roads is handled much better now than last year. The car slows down instead of having a panic attack every time.

Today, I thought it was phantom braking, but upon reviewing the footage, it seems AP thought the van was encroaching my lane. I would say it was an appropriate braking.

Believe it when I don't see it.

If you have safety concerns about TACC or AP report your concerns to the regulator in your country, that is the DVSA in the UK https://forms.dvsa.gov.uk/Vsdr/create the form is very easy to use and quick to fill in. I have asked the DVSA to investigate hard braking by TACC after a near serious incident on the M6 when driving our M3. The more report the issues the quicker Tesla will fix it in my view. Let’s face it they seem in no hurry at the moment.

A simple fix by Tesla would be to give the TACC AP a Beta tag and give us a standard speed cruise control.

That would be good but it would be a hell of a climb down for Tesla. I vote for standard cruise now please.
