Ugh I know people feel strongly about FSD and Tesla. As some one who uses it ( and still pays attention hands on wheels when activated) when FSD is active as soon as it sees anything resembling emergency lights it will beep and clearly disengage. I am not sure, but it's possible this person probably is just using Tesla as a scape goat for their own poor driving. However in my experience it will force the driver to take control when emergency lights are recognized specifically to avoid instances like this.
Doesn't Tesla usually look at the logs for a situation like this, so we'll know shortly?
"As you can see by looking at the logs, the FSD was disengaged 276ms prior to the crash, therefore the driver is at fault" /s
Assuming something was on, I'm not even convinced it was FSD and it could have easily been AP.
The media and police get that wrong more often than right, and the article isn't even specifically naming either one.
Or could have been pressing the gas so it wouldn't brake anyway.
I can't imagine a scenario where they'd be on FSD or AP pressing the accelerator AND looking at their phone.
It's one thing to press it because it's hesitant or something but that would usually mean you've presses it because it's not doing what you want which means you were watching.
Him admitting he was on his phone (if truthful) would mean he was pressing the accelerator thus overriding the input AND not paying attention.
It's a stretch to far.
If he lied about the phone to try and blame AP/FSD then that could make sense.
Thanks for the tip, going to flash my blue flashlight at teslas from now on.
Yeah sure if that's what makes you happy.... 👍. Nothing like blinding random people in cars in your spare time.
No, not the driver, the faulty sensors and programming that should've never been approved for the road.
Wait so how is it faulty and bad programming if it disengages when emergency vehicles are present? You'd prefer it to stay on in emergency situations?
Habe you read the article? It made the Tesla crash into the police car.
Yes, hence my comment. Maybe go back and read (all the words) from the top ;-)
