UNCUT: TESLA FSD SUPERVISED AUSTRALIA V13.2.9 | NIGHT DRIVE IN SYDNEY

EV Channels Review

This "Uncut" video provides an extensive, real-time test of Tesla's FSD Supervised v13.2.9 during a night drive through Sydney. The reviewers, Tom and Joy, highlight the system's generally admirable performance in complex, low-light conditions, including navigating intricate junctions, roundabouts, and traffic. They praise its smooth acceleration and deceleration, often smoother than human drivers, and its ability to recognize signs and road markers, even temporary ones. The system's handling of traffic, including merges and interactions with other vehicles, is noted as impressive, with a particularly human-like hesitation observed in one scenario. However, the review doesn't shy away from critical edge cases. A significant "black strike" is noted when the system appeared to be heading towards stopping on tram tracks, necessitating immediate human intervention. Other interventions were required for lane changes and navigating construction zones. The reviewers also point out that while the system is hyper-aware of pedestrians, the lack of a front bumper camera on this Model 3 raises concerns about detecting smaller objects or people. Overall, the FSD Supervised system is deemed capable and improving, but the necessity for constant, attentive supervision is strongly emphasized, with the stress level for the driver remaining higher than conventional driving for now.
