Big annoying bug still: if the map is wrong so it thinks there is a lane change needed, and you cancel, it just keeps insisting more and more that you need the lane change. This really should result in some feedback. 'Hmm, someone canceled six lane changes in a row to follow the route - maybe my maps are wrong'
Sounds like a map issue. There a ton a construction around Houston on the interstates and NoA is fairly useless in those areas because exits have moved or the interstate is now where a frontage road used to be so it thinks the speed limit is 45 instead of 65. I supposed all of that will eventually be corrected when they update maps but who knows how long it will take all of that to get properly documented. That said, driving from Houston to central Florida worked great as there hasn’t been much change to what the maps expected. They really need to figure out a way to not be so map dependent for speed limits and exits.Finally got 2019.8.5 on my S last night. I tried it on my commute this morning. My experience was about the same as previous versions of NOA going back to the intial version. It completely failed to merge onto the highway (after engaging on the on-ramp). It dove into an emergency pull-over thinking it was my exit -- the kind that's surrounded by concrete barriers and is only about 5 car lengths long. I quickly took over and re-engaged to see if it could make the actual exit and it couldn't do it. It sort of veered back and forth in a very confused way making me appear drunk, at which point I took over.
So, still useless for me.

The map data in general seems pretty outdated, there are ramp revisions made in 2015 here that are still not reflected in the turn-by-turn directions, so NoA always takes the wrong exit.
It's great once you get South of the construction in Tacoma all the way to Portland. Of course there are many feetf Teslas following that route than there are on 405.So I've finally found one area in WA state where NoA works.

I stand by what I said: they should be gathering cancel data and using it to update the map. Take advantage of the human perception.
I don't have 2019.8.5 so I can't try out the new amazing "@wk057 is a threat and must be dealt with" neural net, but 2019.8.4 is still as worthless as the last time I posted here about NoA. If I'm sitting in the middle lane on the highway with my cruise set to 75mph with the person in front of me going 65mph and the lane to my left is completely empty, my car will happily continue following this person regardless of what my aggressiveness setting is at. It constantly suggests I merge to the right to prepare for my exit despite said exit still being 4+ miles away. Merging on and off freeways is still scary as hell because the car doesn't seem to care much about cars beside it as the lanes start to condense.
I'm glad other people are finding it useful, but it's just simply been a liability for me. I'll give it a try again when I finally get 2019.8.5, but probably only when I'm driving alone in the car.
I turned off the need for confirmations, and each time I’ve left work the need for confirmations was turned back on.
The improvements are great but the weakest link is still bad/inaccurate/outdated map data IMO. NoA is pretty helpless if the map data isn't correct, and unfortunately there's a lot of local highways here that fall into that category. Some junctions it will absolutely flip out, like I-405 N -> WA-520 East, it will choose the wrong lane, then try to change lanes at the last second, then it will try and fail to change lanes while on a single-lane ramp! In some cases ramp revisions that happened 5 years ago are still not present and result in NoA taking the wrong exit.
This sentiment pretty much sums up my thinking about NoA even though I seldom use it because my local driving circumstances do not provide the opportunity. Approaching the NoA shortfalls topic from the direction of suggested usage advice concerning Autopilot shortfalls goes a long way to preventing the dissatisfaction with NoA most commenters are experiencing because the best NoA advice I would give is to not use NoA when road and/or traffic conditions call for a human directing the vehicle. NoA works pretty well everywhere the highway is properly maintained (very important) excepting highway interchanges. As far as I can determine NoA through highway interchanges will be one of the very last things Tesla achieves before applying to the authorities for Level 4 Autonomous driving designation. I applaud all of you contributing commenters for being unpaid Tesla testers vigilantly exercising the NoA feature set and I would be testing right there alongside you if I had the proper roadways near my location. In parting, be safe out there and keep your hands on the steering wheel.In traffic with even flows it works pretty well.
