Are We There Yet? | Tesla Full Self Driving 2024 Review

The principle of a "self driving automobile" is nothing new however there's just one producer that sells a product titled Complete Self Driving. This bundle has actually been offered for many years and while it has actually certainly improved in time there are still numerous aspects keeping this from genuinely being "Self Driving". So here in the year of 2024 we spend about 1,000 miles with this system to determine how far it's come and what it can!

    comma ai is as close as you can get to autopilot

      comma ai makes Tesla look like it doesn’t have any hardware limitations. -Travis

    “yet” is doing a lot of heavy lifting

    but I’m sure the cult will argue a whole bunch about how basic baked in hardware limitations will get better via software.

    yah okay.

      You are not wrong, but you do have to admit it’s pretty impressive what hey have done with just cameras. It’s got a long way to go though, but so much of tech in general is 25-50% substance and the rest is fluff and selective omissions.

      What they’ve done with cameras is impressive but I think the difference between Tesla and other manufacturers is how much responsibility they’re willing to put on the consumer and the trust they’re putting in the cameras. -Travis

    Was this V12 or V11 Of FSD

      Obviously 12. The free trial required version 12.3 update to be installed.

      The latest version as of April, I believe that’s V12. -Travis

    Vehicles should remain in the rightmost lane unless passing. The Tesla was going 70 in a 70 for the first several minutes, and it never wanted to get in the rightmost lane?? That’s super annoying.

      Keep right just means stay out of the left most lane not necessarily stay in the furthest right lane on a highway with more than 2 lanes. It would be pretty ridiculous for everyone to drive in the right most lane on a 4-6 lane highway…. It’s arguably safer to drive in a lane with no cars in front or behind you, and minimal cars along side, (assuming it’s not the left most lane) because the number of things that could go wrong goes down drastically, and your ability to react goes up drastically. This is especially important in a computer vision based “self driving” where you as the human are not only reacting to driving factors, but also potentially the car’s inputs.

      @@brandonbergeron4668 Legally, you are probably right. But you can’t tell me that on a 6 lane highway the right 5 lanes are designed for going the speed limit and the left one is for everyone else. You SHOULD be as far right as possible unless you are passing someone.

      @@emoney9931 The fewer times you have to change lanes the lower frequency of something going wrong. The car actually can see when a car is signaling to change lanes, but how often do people not bother with that, and move over anyway. It’s an interesting endeavor to code for a seemingly endless number of permutations. I have no skin in the game I just find it interesting to see how these systems handle things most of us do daily as near second nature. Does the computer follow the rules of the road to a T knowing most people don’t and wouldn’t expect you for example, to come to a complete stop at each stop sign rather than rolling a bit.

      Middle lane on a 3 lane highway (most of what is shown in this video) is for travel, right is for oncoming and exiting, and left for passing, but this also varies by state, some states don’t require this, and under certain conditions these rules/laws become mere suggestions such as in any major metro during rush hour. For example, one use case I know would be a huge edge case to account for is, some places let you drive in the breakdown lane during rush hour times.

      It seemed to want to avoid the right lane and my guess is it’s to avoid merging complications. -Travis

    Tesla needs to send dev teams outside of California and I bet the software improves drastically. East coast roads aren’t nice and gridded, lots of weird interesections, short on ramps and off ramps, roads without nicely painted lines, narrow roads etc. lots of room to improve edge cases, like a warning that the car will begin to slow due to rain like you mentioned.

    Travis, What is all the fuss about? I see cars driving themselves (with negligible driver input) every day. 😉

      True enough. -Travis

    We own a Tesla Model 3 that wife’s uses as her daily driver. We love it and its amazing and has exceeded our expectations. Now self driving, and maybe I am alone here, I just dont get it or why any would want it. I want to drive my cars my way all the time. If you dont take a taxi….

      I use AutoPilot for nearly all my freeway driving but the difference between standard AutoPilot and FSD isn’t much worth it to my mind. Not yet. -Travis

    Very good review of the FSD. Good to see Tesla content that is non-biased either for or against Tesla. I hope cars start adopting more radar and lidar tech. I don’t need a car that drives itself, but I do need better awareness where possible. I can’t see through a truck, but if my car can, that’s a huge plus.

      I don’t mind a car making freeway driving a little easier but cameras can only go so far. It’ll be interesting to see how lidar works its way into the mainstream and how quickly. -Travis
