Sometimes I pine for the days of simple cruise control. Just maintain my speed. I don’t need a bitchin’ Betty in my car too.

like me - only user experience. You being contrary just to be so? There are dozens of FSD caused accidents on the record. Humans needed to be paying attention but FSD would routinely plow down motorcyclists at stop signs - if not stopped.

safer as in not getting into accident ever [because we know that's not true] or safer as in taking 20 min longer to accomplish anything, randomly disconnecting and being unable to change lanes when a human could easily accomplish it? [becausae we know that is how it operates]

Yup. Humans are fallible. FSD seems more fallible than humans in many situations. I trust my vision and reflexes [for now] well above the current state of the art of FSD.

@ewoodrick I'd say MOST rear end collisions are caused by people not paying attention to the vehicles in front of them - and not just to the one guy in front but the two or three in front of that vehicle -

When did it become the three second rule? It was two seconds when they taught me how to drive and that works just fine if you’re paying attention. If you’re texting or shaving or blow drying your hair the ten second rule won’t help.

Who says you’d even notice me? Cops don’t.

Never in a million years. Like many I received the free FSD trial in my 2023 Model 3 Performance. I accepted. And though I still have a few days left will not sign up for it - and - from a safety perspective - would never use it. Opinion: [Yes - opinion based on my driving it all over...

Now that folks know this - don't pay for a Hertz vehicle until they go through the steps before sale to move it out of guest mode . . .

Thanks - yeah - its got another 3 years in warranty - I'll track times

Here is another thought - where you live matters - you may be too close to an area where they are doing GPS interference drills by the military., Here in the Southwest the military is always doing GPS interference training - its only supposed to be transitory for a few minutes time to time - I...

Hello all - I have this happen often - I'll back out of the garage after an overnight - and enter a destination and the GPS displays the route but the map doesn't update for 1/2 mile or so. The car knew where it was - it was able to create a route - but - the GPS didn't update the map for quite...
