The video is worth a watch: [VIDEO] I think it's fair to say that there are definitely some sketchy moments in there. The one that surprised me the most was marked "Near Collision (2)" in the video (12:25). A car really close to the Tesla doesn't seem to be picked up at all until it's too late: [LINK] You can see in the first frame there that on the screen there's nothing in front of the Tesla, it's just the usual white background. But right out the windshield we can see the car is already very close. At the bottom frame which is a split second later, the car is finally detected and we can see the screen now shows the car. But at that point the driver manually intervened with a sharp swerve right as they were about to hit the car. Going frame by frame on Youtube the green box indicating the car was only there for 4 frames before the driver disengaged. I was aware that self driving is far from ready but I didn't know that even basic detection stuff like this is buggy. Double parked cars, people walking in the street, etc, I would expect to be problematic. But this is not really an edge case, it's just a regular car at close range with no obstructions in between...

Cmon. There's a video of a Tesla FSD driving on the wrong side of the road, cutting off a car it did not see at an intersection, then accelerating straight into a fence, all in the space of five minutes in Oakland. Tesla has by no means solved the vision problem. Their software is laughably bad. [VIDEO]

Maybe I should have linked to [1] as one of the videos from a couple of guys testing it out in Oakland. [1] [VIDEO]
