While I certainly do not dispute that giving large vehicles (semi truck, etc.) a wider berth... what I am concerned about - and I assume others as well - is the
method AP uses to give this extra space.
When going slow, as in rush-hour traffic, it's hardly noticeable. However, when going at freeway speeds, the 'jerky' steering motion to get away from the semi is alarming. I don't find it 'scary' per se, but alarming would be a good adjective in my opinion. Scary is what is used by my passengers.
What I found truly scary was going between 2 large vehicles. Even at a modest 35mph, I felt the need to take over. I didn't, however, but was highly aware, and at the ready. When between 2 large vehicles (in this case, a large cargo van and a truck with a very large cargo trailer), AP was literally jerking back and forth. Extremely unnerving.
I just updated to 32.11.1 last night, so maybe they have already addressed this issue? I had to drive my truck today (cannot WAIT till I can reserve my Tesla truck!!), so no experience with AP with this update.
Again, I am not only
for innovation (and willing to be a Beta tester), but for increased safety. Giving large vehicles more clearance is a good thing... let's just make it more 'comfortable' for the Tesla drivers and passengers. I'm sure Tesla is already working on this, or has already produced a fix!
