Hi all! New user. I've had my sights set on a Model Y for a loooong time now! Just waiting for pandemic related financials to play out, and I still have some life left on my Mariner Hybrid.
But the wife has, shall we say, not been a proponent of the idea. But I may be able to make a solid case for it due to today's event, and may be able to talk her into getting a 3!
Now I know every situation is unique, and resolution not guaranteed, so I use my first post to ask:
"Might Autopilot / FSD have prevented this crash??"
The wife was driving along in her 2012 Lexus IS 250. A sudden violent sneeze knocked her glasses off. As she either grappled to try to catch them, or reached to retrieve them, the car veered off the road and struck a utility pole. (To be fair, the pole was less than a foot off the curb, so probably within 3 or 4 feet of the running lane).
So, if one of the autonomy features in Tesla technology would've prevented this, would it have required FSD or would the stock autopilot have sufficed?
thanks!
