Tesla Full Self-Driving Beta is slowly being improved but it’s still not quite ready to reliably drive you from point to point without driver input and correction. There are certain areas where the system can already do this with apparent safety, yet there are some environments that still pose quite a challenge for the system.
CNBC wanted to see how good Tesla FSD is, so it contacted three Tesla owners from around the country and went along for a ride with them with the system activated. First is a Model Y driver from Brooklyn, New York, who is a self-confessed Tesla fan and company stock owner.
As in other instances where we’ve seen FSD try to make sense of New York traffic, FSD doesn’t do a particularly good job here. It doesn’t fare much better with the second driver, from San Francisco, California, since FSD still doesn’t really do dense cities with complex intersections very well.
