Just came back from a great snowy nighttime drive on Tesla FSD V14.2.2.1 using Grok navigation. Pretty much invisible lane markings, slippery roads, a bridge, dark, hills, turning onto a snowy 50mph road, and it handles it all. The way V14 handles snow continues to impress me. The conditions...

Watch this Tesla FSD v13.2.9 drive on the wrong side of the road as it attempts to use the oncoming lane as a turn lane, forcing the driver to disengage. @ElonMusk’s defective software should be banned from public roads.

Just look how far the lady on her bicycle still is from the side of my lane and Tesla FSD just spots it and acts like a true gentleman. FSD increases safety so much while at the same time removing the egotistical behaviour from the driver. It creates a better world on the roads Tesla Europe, Middle East & Africa Tesla_AI #FSDEurope

MSU scratches and claws their way to a road victory in OT on the back of 29-9 from Jeremy Fears who continues his AA campaign, a divine corner three, and some timely late buckets from Jax. It wasn’t pretty for most of it but the boys found a way. Onto MI. Go GREEEEN!!!

FSD 14.2 STUNS IN WINTER DRIVING! Just got done driving ~100 miles on a snowy interstate and a little suburban driving. A few notes: FSD absolutely, definitively detects snow as a separate substance from rain. As the snow began to fall, there came a point where FSD first detected the snow and immediately slowed. From then on, it drove in a *completely different profile*. Generally, V14.2 kept 40-55mph on a 70mph interstate. When driving in Sloth/Chill and you try to increase the speed profile to Standard/Hurry, the truck displays a red error saying inclement weather is preventing FSD from speeding up. Fantastic! V14.2 takes corners slow as molasses to keep traction. It does NOT shoot gaps and pull out in front of other vehicles. V14.2 waits for BIG gaps to make its merge into traffic. It is properly cautious! One instance of Red Hands occurred when it was merging into a center left turn lane. This center lane was the only lane not plowed, so either 1. it got confused with lane markings or 2. Slid sideways very slightly and got upset. On straightaways on the interstate in areas with little snow coverage, V14.2 would speed up close to the speed limit. While the roads were wet today from road treatment, I was concerned for slick & frozen areas and manually backed off on the speed. While not technically unsafe, I did this out of an abundance of caution. IMO this is a grey area between "driving safely" and "not driving how I do" lol Not much ice today. Just snow and slush. ***Tonight, 6-12 inches of fresh snow is forecasted to fall here. I'll be out at dawn tomorrow to test in worse conditions with less traffic.*** Stay tuned.

Tesla FSD is not built in a lab.......it’s trained on actual roads, capturing insane edge cases like grid failures and pitch-black streets. That’s why it handles chaotic traffic and sudden darkness without panicking Tesla FSD has now passed 9B cumulative miles and is advancing at a much faster rate than anything else Now running on the brand-new FSD v14.3 (released April 7), featuring a rewritten AI compiler for 20% faster reactions, an upgraded vision encoder for low visibility, and vastly smoother driving This is intelligence built from the real world. It will navigate just like a human, but way safer....and the safety gap keeps widening

I spent a few hours using Tesla FSD V14.3.5 on the Cybertruck yesterday. I said this before, but I honestly think the Cybertruck is the best vessel for FSD. The way it handles tight spaces and sharp turns is impressive. What makes the Cybertruck the best (imo) is the way it can just eat up the road under it. Potholes, rough roads, whatever, it doesn’t matter. Cybertruck glides over everything. That combined with amazing car control is why I think it’s the best, and most comfortable. I just can’t get over how amazing FSD is these days. For the younger generation, self-driving will become the norm. For us, I don’t think it will ever get old.

FSD V14.1.7 Takes me downtown to see a show with the push of a button. It's absolutely incredible what a Tesla is capable of on V14. This is a ~50 minute drive and it ends in an underground parking garage and it was 100% handled by FSD, all I did was press a button.

TESLA FSD SHOWS US WHAT "SAFE" LOOKS LIKE IN THE AGE OF AI DRIVING A Tesla on Full Self-Driving just rolled onto the shoulder at 17 mph to make way for an Amazon van like it was holding the door open. Fans called it polite. Critics called it reckless. Depends how you feel about letting a robot guess where the road ends. No crash, but the clip shows FSD playing it safe, which is pretty awesome if you ask me. Source: Dirty Tesla

The end of this video during my drive back is the only weird thing I've experienced on FSD V14.1.1. I think FSD thought it will in an oncoming lane, but it would have been fine if it stayed there since it's a one way street.

A recurring frustration with FSD 14.3.3 It still doesn’t remember previous behavior on roads I drive every day. In both of these clips, the car unnecessarily jumps into the left lane (Hurry mode) despite clear reasons not to: • Video 1: The lane is ending and blocked by construction barrels. • Video 2: The left lane is becoming a left-turn only. In both cases, it had to force its way back into the right lane with traffic all around. Definitely not ideal.

Chinese FSD testers were blown away and couldn’t believe what happened. FSD was looking for road entrance in a big open lot. No markings on the ground. No signs. FSD recognized not going off the edge of the lot. It almost looked like FSD AI was conscious, sort of knowing what it needed to do to get back to the road. Truly incredible. Tesla AI Ashok Elluswamy

Jason Cammisa on trying Tesla FSD V14 during an hour long trip after being critical of FSD in the past: "I had to eat my shit and my words; This f**king car drove us the entire way, expertly, making lane changes whenever it wanted, with nothing dangerous. No jerks, no side-to-side. Beautifully smooth. It f**king pulled into the parking lot and backed itself into a parking spot. And then it drove us all the way back to San Francisco; This is door to door amazing. Couldn't believe it."

This may be the longest reverse I have seen Tesla FSD do for me. I was dropping a passenger off at a "local motel", all the way in the back where there is a big fence separating the motel from an industrial junkyard and no easy way to get back out. Tesla FSD v14.2.2 did an amazingly long reverse, all the way through the front gate and then turn around to get on our way to the next passenger. Every day there seems to be something new from Tesla FSD that I see while doing Uber in Houston that just amazes me.

FSD supervised in Europe: Another great video of our drive with FSD supervised in Dusseldorf, Germany yesterday. Here you can clearly see how the Tesla Model 3 stays fully in control in a busy area again. Passing two parked vehicles in the street (on our lane), seeing the second vehicle even before me, reacting to a fast biker that suddenly comes from the right side, and smoothly driving over tramrails on the left lane with no markings on the street at all. FSD is so needed in Europe, it will not only make our lives safer but also so much more relaxed. What a pleasure it was to be in this car, even when we were not driving (yet).

First drive done with FSD v12.6.4 on my AI3 Model 3 and it went great. Very similar behavior to Cybertruck actually. Zero disengagement, zero intervention drive on a very similar drive that I just did in CT. Went from Century City to the Santa Monica supercharger on the same route almost back to back with the two. They fixed the small issue with the turn signal coming on too early, as well as it now has earlier lane changes. Very similar to the Cybertruck drive I just did with v13.2.8. It even avoided a van that almost sideswiped me in a turn, smoothly and swiftly. AI3 is getting crazy good, such a smooth drive. You can really tell it wants to back into a parking spot, but can’t yet. It swings out and all you have to do is reverse into it. So far, really good update. Feels like a more polished v12.6.3 which was already very good. Great work Tesla AI team!
