I TRIED TAKING MY WIFE TO WORK USING TESLA'S FULL SELF DRIVING

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles an intense experience attempting to commute solely using Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) in Los Angeles traffic, specifically in a Cybertruck. The reviewer highlights FSD's capabilities and shortcomings, noting its proficiency on freeways but significant struggles in complex urban environments. Key criticisms include abrupt braking, hesitant lane changes, difficulty with traffic circles, and a general lack of confidence in navigating unpredictable situations like unprotected left turns and merging traffic. The reviewer explicitly states the Cybertruck's FSD feels less refined and more stressful than that of the Model Y, citing issues with acceleration near red lights and insufficient spacing. Despite the stress and numerous interventions required, the reviewer acknowledges Tesla's FSD is still ahead of other brands, but concludes it's not yet fully autonomous for daily commutes without significant driver oversight and anxiety.
