I love that you're doing these videos! As a future MY owner (waiting on Juniper), these tests are so helpful. Can you simulate a tire flying towards the car (maybe foam?), rolling toward the car and sitting on the road? Seems like it's a common-enough occurrence on highways that it might be worth looking at.

They're very good at detecting cars and humans; That usually hasn't been a problem for Tesla. The problem is reliably detecting and classifying road debris (As we can see in this video). It will likely be a problem for a long time, since it's even a problem for human drivers! How do you tell the difference between a small fragment of rusted steel versus a brown leaf? One can puncture your tire, the other is harmless, but they both look the same from a distance.

Edge case testing, good stuff. Maybe some functional ones? Like a person in a hi-viz vest holding a stop/go sign. Oh, how about a crazy person covered in blood advancing on the car swinging a sledge hammer? If it stops then you succumbed to the zombie invasion.... Stephanie might have to drive for that one ;-)

CHRIS. Question: How much pressure dose the camera washer on the CyberTruck have, is it a little stream, or is a high pressure blast? Maybe do a Short on it where you put a few substances on it and see how well it cleans it.

nice test. the horizontal box and ball were unfortunate. I agree, front facing camera makes sense.

Love the GTA wasted scenes! Hilarious!

interestin experiment! more of these! subbed!

Thanks for putting the effort to test it inside out. When is your test last time, feel it should be handled even with v11, thanks

Loved everything about this--especially the GTA bits. So funny.

What your seeing here is that when the FSD can no longer see the box the box no longer exists. It has me wondering should a FSD side camera fail and a car passes into the now dead zone if FSD is still aware that it has lost track of the car. Without specific training I don't think so.

I believe the slowing down each time the car approach the person on the side of the road is normal, because the car "thinks" that a person close to the road and immobile like that, may try to cross over at any time, and thus, the car is preparing itself in case something like this happens. Honestly, I prefer this kind of "safety first" reaction from FSD, than just driving normally and ignoring that pedestrian.

Great video! You need to send this to Dan O'Dowd, as well as NHTSA - maybe teach them a little about just how good FSD is getting these days! And many thanks to Stephanie for helping out with this video - that's true dedication!

Love this content. FSD needs work on object detection for sure.

@DirtyTesla

17 күн бұрын

Doesn't respond to emergency vehicles yet. School bus stop signs seem inconsistent

It's incredible. Detecting a toy a from very far is impressive. It did perfectly. I think that decision between proceeding forward and stoping is very important because there are situations where the car shouldn't brake for example a small snow pit that felt from another car, wind lifting leafs etc. Fsd does make really good decisions when to proceed and when to brake.

What version of FSD 12 are you using?

Great test again , wish FSD starts for Australia...👍I completely agree why not have front bumper camera - maybe worth asking to Tesla

I did a road trip in a friends Tesla with the FSD trial a few weeks ago and it was going to run over a pile of trash on the road, so I had to take over. I haven't driven with FSD since 2019 and I'd hoped it would be better about debris in 2024.

I have an interesting idea! Inspired by road runner where the cartoon drawer a tunnel entrance on a wall. This might be hard to test, but will be very fascinating. Can you paint a large canvas of a tunnel or a road that is large enough length wise to cover the road, then see if the tesla stops or drives through it.

Definitely lol’d at the GTA theme. Great work Chris and Stephanie! Fun video 🙌

When will you do these tests at 55mph or higher?

I always think: does Tesla run tests with fsd with: car in high speed, e.g. 70mph and a dummy car very suddenly standing still ahead in such a way that the tesla can't go around and has to do a very hard emergency break but still hits this other car then with e.g. 10 mph. How does fsd do it: despite it's not possible to avoid a crash performing the best possible emergency breaking? (or does it "give up" and not does the best possible emergency breaking till the end?) And what happens after the crash? Does anyone know if Tesla does those tests and if they publish them?

Well this amazing

Interessting tests! But shows, there is a long way to go, even under perfect conditions.

Well done!

Too funny watching your videos with comments. I admit. Sometimes they are too long for the drives. But I get the point you are trying to make.

The mannequin falling and the wasted thing playing made me laugh every time! Good job with the FSD though… but the bumper cameras should help.

We ran over a big piece of truck tire on Interstate while on FSD in our 2024vModel Y. It tore off the black plastic trim under the front bumper and pull the wire loose that controls the horn. One other time I had to manually steer around a piece of truck tire. It seems to have a hard time seeing dark colored objects in the road, maybe they blend not the pavement.

I think the problem is the confidence level it requires before deciding to break, if it would be to sensitive, you would get phantom breaks all over the place

Does FSD respond appropriately to cyclists on a two lane road? I’m a newbie to FSD and have been using it on a weekly (evening) drive on Huron River Drive between Ann Arbor and Dexter, and there are so many cyclists - and I’ve disengaged every time because I’m not sure what it’s going to do. Curious if you’ve had any experience with that situation.

Yes, if there's room it will move away from them to pass, if there's not room, it will stay back. But I've found the "go around to pass" can come a little later than what I would do, tho it still gives plenty of room.

3:04 no car visualization but it did briefly show a person on a bicycle. It perhaps identified the wheels of the roadster momentarily. Very interesting!

I wonder if it will ever be able to differentiate between something you could hit, like a beach-ball or balloon, as opposed to something like a bowling ball?

The main issue in my area for FSD now is that it doesn't know whether an object or pothole in front of it is dangerous or safe. It's not always possible to drive around an object especially if there is traffic on both sides but a split second decision has to be made to brake, run it over, or move over just a few feet so it doesn't hit the tires but passes safely under the car. If it's a peace of clothing or a small dip it won't do any damage but a tiny sharp metal object or a pothole with a sharp edge will take out a tire/rim instantly.

very risky but I would like to see a real fsd emergency break, where the car has no chance to go around the blocking object*. Coming from higher speed like 40mph. Is fsd able to perform an early and very hard emergency breaking like a very good driver? *this could be a couple of soft barrier tapes in a shape of a wall that lifts suddenly or so

Thanks for the video. My car stops for wide open spaces.

Our MYLR with USS didn't stop or swerve for tumbleweeds on FSD 12.3.4 at 70 mph in the AZ desert. No sign of Wiley Coyote out there -- maybe you could try the test with a cardboard cutout Wiley or Roadrunner!

Your wife is too cool to help you on so many videos . If I ask my wife to do that , I will sleep in Tesla with camping mode right away !

I laughed every time at the GTA effects.

Can you test on tumbleweeds on freeway?

The Starlink dish... It never saw one before!

How did it get dog from ball :)

I can’t believe Tesla removed the US sensors, but never added a front bumper camera(s).

With the first obstacle it responded well. I wonder if the action is repeated over an over that the car computer thinks it made it through the last time so the obstacle was not a threat and would advance without regret. It made it through the event without problems and it rejects other objects in the same location. Hence if you set up at various locations the vehicle would be hypersensitive and over respond. If it is the same location since it is FSD it rejects objects since it made it through 5 minutes ago. FSD has the GPS locator and rejects new objects since nothing happened 5 minutes ago. free roaming chickens get a break the first time, but the next time they are flattened.

Has it ever done an emergency break?

Cheers

We also learn from the very early age that if we don’t avoid an object and bump into it, it hurts. AI has no such point of reference.

I've had FSD stop for clear shattered glass on the road

the problem with this in my country is that Jay walker are waiting to cross the road. If the vehicle detect and slow down, either the pedestrain think it's a signal for them to cross or they get impatient waiting for the car to go pass them first.

I think while it is important that the car stops/moves away when an obstructive object is on the road, but maybe it is also important that the car doesn't stop for every little thing, because that way miscreants might disrupt Robotaxi quite easily.

I have 12.3.6 and have had it make a right turn into the bike lane (twice). It had to cross a solid white line to get into the bike lane treating it like a car travel lane (it was a wide bike lane). Big oops there. On the plus side, it actually recognized a 15 MPH school zone for the very first time.

I’m thinking some of this is object permanence. It sees it once and knows it’s there for future runs.
