Agree with this. Add to that the very late switching of lanes on the highway to take an exit, which I think is a very easy fix.FSDS seems so good at everything expect inner city multilane selection and crowded UPL

This morning I had an UPL that FSDS totally misjudged and waited until a car was closing to try and pull out. FSDS seems so good at everything expect inner city multilane selection and crowded UPL. Chuck's latest UPL (this morning) is F'n UGLY and more like a Steven King nail biter movie.
Coming around to the idea that the lead engineer for this needs to be relieved of duty. It is not a difficult problem! Just simulate it. The problems will show up. If not, fix the simulation.Maybe they need to better synchronize the new vehicle control nets or poor object kinematics estimation?
Similar episode once when I tried to disengage using the yoke but corrective steering prevented me from turning manually, and there were lots of beeps. All happened very quickly while I was driving very slowly in a parking lot.I tried disengaging by jerking the steering wheel slightly. The robot shrieked and gave errors about the speed being too high and said something about a steering problem. It refused to disengage, and continued to do loud beeping. The blue stripe finally turned gray and the beeping stopped.

I’m beginning to have concerns that they will not have the right approach for v12.4.
Except that does not seem to be happening here.The challenge is that outcomes are probabilistic and not deterministic so the best you can hope for is that the inference is probably correct.
I would prefer to disengage with a gentle tap on the brakes and take control, rather than fidgeting with the steering wheel.Similar episode once when I tried to disengage using the yoke but corrective steering prevented me from turning manually, and there were lots of beeps.

Chuck always test it right after installing a new version. My experience is that it takes a couple of days for a new version to “settle in”.This morning I had an UPL that FSDS totally misjudged and waited until a car was closing to try and pull out.

Sorry, this is 12.3.612.3.4
Right tires off the road a couple of times…

They appear to be leaning too heavily on real-world results and training. And it does not appear that there is any feedback loop.
What's wrong with turning left?
Left-hand turns are generally considered unsafe and wasteful on right-hand driving roads, such as those in the US.
"Left-turning traffic typically has to turn against a flow of oncoming vehicles," explains Tom Vanderbilt, author of the book "Traffic: Why we drive the way we do."
"This can not only be dangerous, but makes traffic build up, unless you install a dedicated left-turn 'phase,' which is fine but basically adds 30 or 45 seconds to everyone else's single time," he said.
A study on crash factors in intersection-related accidents from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Association shows that turning left is one of the leading "critical pre-crash events" (an event that made a collision inevitable), occurring in 22.2 percent of crashes, as opposed to 1.2 percent for right turns. About 61 percent of crashes that occur while turning or crossing an intersection involve left turns, as opposed to just 3.1 percent involving right turns.
Left turns are also three times more likely to kill pedestrians than right ones, according to data collected by New York City's transportation planners.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't actually seen what degree of improvement a full retraining cycle can actually lead to.
12.4 will be our first real chance to see how much changes.
