Video #47 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.10.2 - Home to Dairy Queen

This video contains footage recorded on the evening of February 27th, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.10.2 driving me from my home (NE Minneapolis) to Dairy Queen (St. Anthony, MN). Even though this is a relatively short drive we were able to recognize some improvements along the way as well as witness a flawless 180-degree turn! Like I have done with previous videos, I have updated my running tally of improvements and issues with FSD Beta 10.10.2 which you can find here:

Improvements Compared To 10.8 / 10.8.1

• FSD Incorrectly Uses Shoulder - When making right turns onto certain roads (See example here), FSD would previously turn into the shoulder and stay there resulting in a disengagement. Starting with FSD Beta 10.10.2, FSD will still make the right turn into the shoulder however it now quickly corrects itself and moves over to the proper lane.
• Turning Left Into Oncoming Lane - When making a left turn onto Selby Ave from Snelling Ave in St. Paul, MN (See here), FSD would previously attempt to turn into the oncoming lane resulting in a disengagement. Based on my recent testing with FSD Beta 10.10.2, this issue can now considered resolved as the car now turns into the correct lane. This issue initially cropped up in FSD Beta 10.6.x and remained in FSD Beta 10.8 & 10.8.1.
• Less Hesitation At Previously Problematic 2-way and 4-way Intersections - At certain intersections the car seems to hesitate less than it did in previous builds however I noticed this only to be the case in low light situations (previous behavior remains in daylight).
• Abrupt Deceleration When Approaching Slower or Turning Traffic - The car continues to get smoother in this area however more progress needs to be made in order to properly blend in with human drivers.
• Partially Snow Covered Roads - Planner continues to get more confident when handling & positioning itself on partially snow covered roads. With that said, further improvements in this area are still needed.

Remaining Issues

• V11 UI - I have experienced several performance & stability issues with the V11 UI that has required me to reboot the MCU several times (see here for examples). Overall, I appreciate what Tesla is trying to achieve with the new UI especially with enhancements like the full screen FSD visualizations. With that said, commonly used controls like seat heaters are buried behind additional menus that make the new UI more difficult to use while driving. Performance and stability of the code continues to be problematic and needs some serious attention to match the quality of previous releases.
• Sudden Braking on 2-lane Country Roads - FSD continues to struggle with 2-lane country roads specifically when encountering oncoming vehicles where it will suddenly hit the brakes.
• Side Visibility With Approaching Traffic - While detection of laterally approaching traffic has improved with FSD Beta 10.10.2, it still remains a problem area and requires further attention.
• Excessive Throttle Input In Slippery Conditions - The car needs to be better at detecting slippery road conditions and decreasing its rate of acceleration. This issue results in numerous disengagements especially in winter conditions that could easily be avoided.
• Slow Decision Making - Due to latency in the FSD software stack, FSD is too slow to react to oncoming traffic when making unprotected left turns. This sometimes results in the car being very choppy with brake and throttle inputs as it waits to make the left turn. In rare cases, this results in the car trying to turn in front of oncoming traffic which results in a disengagement. As Tesla continues to improve decision making latency, I wish they would first improve creep behavior and allow the car to slowly roll into the intersection until it is safe to make the left turn. Currently the car will repeatedly go from throttle to brake frustrating surrounding drivers.
• Car Will Not Proceed On Green - At 3 particular intersections the car will not proceed on green even though it is clear to do so. I surmise this issue is map related however I have no way to confirm this. This behavior has been present throughout each of the FSD Beta 10.x releases.
• Car Unnecessarily Moves To Right Before Initiating Left Turn - I have noticed FSD will move almost a half a car length to the right before initiating a left turn at several intersections, many of which are located on Johnson St NE (NE Minneapolis). Aligning itself to either the painted inside curb or line would help make the car's intent much more predictable.
• Wide Unmarked Roads - The car still likes to position itself in the center of wider unmarked roads even with oncoming traffic. If cars are not parked on the shoulder of the direction we are traveling the car should bias itself more towards the curb vs dead center of the road.
• Auto High Beam Usage - While it isn't quite as annoying as previous builds auto high beams continues to engage in urban areas where high beams should never be used.
• Some 3-way & 4-way Stops Still A Problem - At several 3-way or 4-way stops near my house the car will overly hesitate even when there are no cars present (and visibility is clear).
• Inability To Read Signs - FSD currently does not read common signs like "No Turn On Red" resulting in unnecessary disengagements.
• Flashing Yellow Traffic Lights - FSD continues to struggle with properly detecting flashing yellow traffic lights and almost always requires driver intervention in order to proceed.
• Out of date maps - Incorrect or stale navigation data results in many unnecessary and otherwise avoidable issues (incorrect speed limits on city streets, incorrect route selection, etc.) when using FSD Beta around the Twin Cities. I continue to report these issues to Tesla however they unfortunately continue to exist in FSD Beta 10.10.2.

[Mr. Spacely]

Funny how you and I can be driven by our cars for 30 minutes at a time without intervention, and some folks on this forum say, "FSD is worthless" or "FSD is still 5 years away."

Video #50 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.10.2 - Home to Timberwolf CrossFit (No Highway)

This video contains footage recorded on the afternoon of March 3rd, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.10.2 driving me from my home (NE Minneapolis) to Timberwolf CrossFit (St. Paul, MN), all on city streets (no highways). During the drive, we experienced several disengagements in familiar spots where FSD Beta has struggled in each of the 10.x builds. With that said, we were also able to recognize some improvements which occurred at the following times:

01:23 - Possible Improvement - Less Hesitation At Particular 2-way Stop During Daytime
10:35 - Confirmed Improvement - FSD Now Avoids Using Shoulder When Making Particular Right Turn Onto Snelling Ave N
13:25 - Confirmed Improvement - FSD Enters The Proper Lane After Turning Left Onto Selby Ave

As I have said in the past, we continue to see small progress being made between FSD Beta builds and I"m hopeful that we will some big improvements when FSD Beta V11 is released later this year. For the most recent list of improvements and issues that I have acknowledged with FSD Beta 10.10.2 please refer to the following list:

Improvements Compared To 10.8 / 10.8.1

Video #51 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.12.2 - Home to Timberwolf CrossFit (No Highway)

After selling my 2018 Model 3 Performance and buying a new one in March I have been patiently waiting to get re-added into the FSD Beta program. After 3 months and over 6,000 miles of near perfect driving (100 safety score the entire time), I was re-added to the program a few weeks ago. Ever since then, I have been busy testing FSD Beta 10.12.2 around the Twin Cities and am pleased to say I've noticed some definite progress since 10.10.2. Picking up where I left off with my last video, I recorded a drive from my home (NE Minneapolis) to Timberwolf CrossFit (St. Paul, MN), all on city streets (no highways). Some improvements were acknowledged along the way however several lingering issues remain from previous FSD Beta builds. The improvements as well as the remaining issues have been timestamped below:

This video contains footage recorded on the afternoon of July 18th, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.12.2 driving me around a shortened version of my NE Minneapolis Test Loop. Unlike my previous NE Minneapolis Test Loop videos, this one skips just to the parts of the route that have not yet been covered / tested in my other 10.12.2 videos. A couple of improvements were noticed along the way however many persistent issues remain, one of which I have escalated to the Autopilot team for further investigation.

Video #55 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.12.2 - NE Minneapolis Test Loop (Shortened)

This video contains footage recorded on the morning of August 31st, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.69.1 driving me from my home (NE Minneapolis) to my company’s office (Edina, MN). Aside from the disengagement at the beginning of the video, we enjoy one of the smoothest rides to date w/ FSD Beta thanks to the many enhancements included with 10.69.1. Along the way we also confirm that a long-standing lane selection issue at the intersection of 37th Ave NE & Central Ave NE has been resolved. I am beyond excited because this issue has plagued each of the previous FSD Beta 10.x builds and has always resulted in a disengagement each & every the intersection came up. Shoutout to the Autopilot team for their continued focus and hard work on FSD Beta, it is great to see the improvements with each build first hand!

Video #56 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.69.1 - St Anthony Pkwy UPL Turn

This video contains footage recorded on the afternoon of August 31st, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.69.1 taking an UPL turn onto St Anthony Pkwy from Johnson St NE (NE Minneapolis). I have previously documented FSD Beta's struggles with this particular UPL turn in my "Home to Timberwolf CrossFit (No Highway)" videos and unfortunately the struggles remain in 10.69.1. The issues with this particular UPL turn seem to be caused by excessive latency / jitter when reacting to oncoming traffic. The ego car's posture also is very confusing as it commonly tries to align itself to the right curb using what should be considered dead space while also aiming the nose at oncoming traffic (including the steering wheel). There is definitely a lot of room for improvement here however I am confident that the Autopilot team is up for the task and will tackle this problem in the near future.

Video #57 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.69.1 - NE Minneapolis Test Loop (Shortened)

This video contains footage recorded on the evening of August 31st, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.69.1 driving me around a shortened version of my NE Minneapolis Test Loop. Similar to my last NE Minneapolis Test Loop video, this one follows an abbreviated route that includes areas not yet covered by my other 10.69.1 videos. Along the way we recognize yet another long-standing issue has been resolved due to the enhancements included with FSD Beta 10.69.1 which has me pumped! This particular issue involved the intersection of Plymouth Ave N & 2nd St N where the car would not proceed on green even when:

• The light was green
• We were following a lead car OR we were the lead car
• There were no VRUs, vehicles, or any other type of obstacle present that would obstruct our path

As I continue to do more testing I continue to find more behavior enhancements that have me beyond excited for what is to come with the next FSD Beta builds. Thanks again to the Autopilot team for putting so much into each FSD Beta build, it is appreciated!

Video #58 - Tesla - FSD Beta 10.69.1 - Roundabout & Wide Unmarked Road Torture Test

This video contains footage recorded on the evening of September 3rd, 2022 where I put FSD Beta 10.69.1 through a roundabout & wide unmarked road torture test. Part 1 of the video focuses on a pair of roundabouts located near a busy Walmart in Roseville, MN. I attempted to traverse this pair of roundabouts 10 times, 5 times from East to West and another 5 times from West to East. I considered each test a fail if I had to disengage or intervene with any sort of driver input. After performing all 10 attempts, I recorded 5 passes and 5 fails.

In part 2 of the video we head over to NE Minneapolis where we see how well FSD Beta 10.69.1 handles wider unmarked roads by performing 3 tests on 5th Street NE. 2 of the attempts were made going from North to South and another attempt was made going South to North. I understand these type of scenarios weren't mentioned in the FSD Beta 10.69.1 release notes however I wanted to create a baseline that we can compare against with future builds. I hope you enjoy!

This video contains footage recorded on the afternoon of September 1st, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.69.1 driving me from my home (NE Minneapolis) to Timberwolf CrossFit (St. Paul, MN), all on city streets (no highways). Staying true to the theme of my previous 10.69.1 videos, we acknowledge yet another long-standing issue has been resolved in this video. This particular issue would result in erratic behavior every time I traversed the intersection of St Anthony Blvd & Silver Lake Rd and has been present in each of the 10.x builds. Considering all of the issues fixed by 10.69.1 it is currently my favorite FSD Beta build by far!

Thanks for all the effort here. I hope Tesla is using these videos and notes!

On the one hand, very impressive performance by the car. On the other hand, the complexity of the task, as many recognized from the beginning, is tremendous —much progress is still needed. Seems like years of work still.
