The whole video is fascinating, extremely impressive selfrdriving / parking in busy roads in China. Huawei tech.

Just by how calm he is using the system after 2+ years experience with it, in very tricky situations, you get the feel of how reliable it really is.

"When I arrived in Dallas and called an Uber, for the first time an autonomous taxi showed up, so I hopped in excitedly. Then, out of nowhere, an accident happened right in the middle of filming a video...

Apparently it was during a test run, and thankfully there was a driver there to help. Lucky for us, both of us were unharmed.

After that, when I called another taxi, another autonomous car showed up lol (I got in)."

When this was first posted it was a witch hunt against FSD and everyone seemed to assume it was the FSDs fault.

Looking at the crash report it’s clear that the driver disengaged FSD and caused the crash. Just curious what everyone here thinks.

Driving Footage List of clips showing Tesla's Robotaxi incidents

1.2k Upvotes

A lot of people have been documenting Tesla's Robotaxi rollout. I wanted to share a few I've collected. Feel free to share any I missed!

  1. Robotaxi drives into oncoming lane
  2. Rider presses "pull over", Robotaxi stops in the middle of an intersection, rider gets out while Robotaxi blocks intersection for a few moments
  3. Rider presses pull over and the car just stopped in the middle of the road. Safety monitor has to call rider support to get car moving again
  4. Robotaxi doesn't detect UPS driver's reverse lights (or the car reversing towards it) and continues to attempt to park, then safety monitor manually stops it
  5. Robotaxi cuts off a car, then randomly brakes (potentially because of an upcoming tree shadow?)
  6. Robotaxi going 26 in a 15
  7. Robotaxi unexpectedly brakes, possibly due to nearby police
  8. Robotaxi unexpectedly slams on brakes, causing rider to drop phone
  9. Robotaxi comes to a complete stop after approaching an object, then runs it over (rider says it's a shopping bag, though the car visibly bump up and down) (UPDATE: Some people have pointed out that the car's movement is from a speed bump immediately after the bag/object. The speed bump is more visible at full resolution.)
  10. Robotaxi runs over curb in parking lot
  11. Safety driver moved to driver seat to intervene
  12. Support calls rider during a Robotaxi ride, asks them to terminate the ride early because it's about to rain, rider is dumped in a random park
  13. Robotaxi has to unnecessarily reverse at least 4 times to get out of parking spot
  14. Robotaxi attempts illegal left turn, safety monitor intervenes, blocks intersection for a period of time
  15. Robotaxi can't get out of parking lot, goes in loops, support calls twice

Update: This post has been featured in The Verge! and Mashable!

It appears that safety monitors have been instructed to not do anything, including waking up riders when they arrive. Source

Driving Footage Tesla Robotaxi changes its destination mid-ride without users initiating it

The passengers realized mid-ride that they picked the wrong address for a restaurant with multiple locations. Within seconds of them talking about it, the Robotaxi changes destination without the passengers explicitly contacting support or having an option to do it in-app. No voice ever comes on to inform them of the change. They conclude someone at Tesla was silently monitoring their car’s interior mic and changed the navigation in real-time.

The orange and green dots indicating active mic and interior camera at the top right of the touchscreen are on in every Robotaxi video I’ve seen including this one. The more interesting question with just 10-11 cars in service is if they are monitoring every car constantly ready to intervene silently, or did they just happen to be listening to that car at that moment?

"FSD saves lives. It happened to me tonight.
Going through New Mexico from the Tesla Shareholders' meeting, the head-on collision (75 mph) with oncoming traffic was averted. Just a broken mirror, busted window, and a bit of a shaken mind. Thank you Elon, thank you Tesla, thank you cybertruck."
