Tesla really needs to fix the way the safety score works before actually incorporating it for insurance premium adjustments. Its is very inconsistence and most of the time when the score drops, its not even your fault.
The forward collision is extremely inconsistent. Lot of time it will go off even the car is 3-4 car lengths away. Today, a pedestrian was getting in his car on a main street, there was no way I was going to hit the guy, but the forward collision warning went off. Dropping my score from 96 to 93.
The hard braking is complete BS. Its almost seems that you can't even touch the brakes. Anytime I apply the brakes, and most of the times its soft braking when the light turned yellow, and there was no way for me to make it through, or let the regen to auto stop, so I have to hit the brakes. Instantly in the red. Its funny because Autopilot can slam on the brakes, and that does not affect the score in any way.
I don't understand how I am always in the red for aggressive turning. I don't do crazy speed turns. I am not sure if it wants me to completely stop and turn, even at a green light.
Anytime I am in traffic, which is a lot in Los Angeles, I always get unsafe following. Even when I am at least 1 car length away.
I have never had a forced auto pilot disengagement.
I know a lot of people are having the same problem. I have spoken to several people that I know who own Tesla, and this is always their complaint. If the safety score is just to let you know how you are driving and if there are no consequences, no big deal. However, I have heard that other states, I think Ohio, is using the safety score to adjust your monthly premium. I think it is far more dangerous to drive just to get perfect scores on the safety score system.
