It's safe but it doesn't feel safe

Kind of a weird experience.

My quick review after using Tesla's FSD all weekend...

just a quick note about MVC, theres been a "lot" of fatalities on that road

I know 2 people who were killed on MVC.

I described it as being driven by a student driver

Also, make sure you have it set to “aggressive” as your drive type

That tracks with my experience.

I would add, night driving is much worse

I haven't noticed any difference at night. Might be variations between models.

You can adjust the speed settings so it will go above the speed limit

I hate driving behind Teslas using FSD (and yes you can tell). It's random stopping and accelerating.

Sounds like the drivers behind the Teslas aren’t paying attention or following too close

May 13, 9:55am

Fast acceleration, Regenitive breaking... and the fact that Vegans don't know how to drive.

TheLost

Why is it so hard for some Tesla owners to understand regenerative braking? It's really cool honestly.

CSoul

May 13, 9:57am

Its not the people in the Teslas...

Ya, faster cars tend to attract drivers who like driving too fast.

May 13, 10:09am

Mustang drivers get a bad reputation for the same reason..

TheLost

Absolutely, but driving erratically or stopping inappropriately is also bad driving. Both are at fault.

CSoul

May 13, 9:56am

I haven't had this happen with FSD 12 or later.

May 13, 10:07am

I use it for about 98% of my driving now.

May 13, 9:40am

That about sums it up. "Wow, this is cool" followed by "Now give me the wheel"

My experience is much different.

Not my experience at all.
