Consumer Description

Tesla Full Self Driving FSD is too dangerous for public street experiments. The video evidence is not from my vehicle but mine does not recognize many obstacles that increase the risks of collisions: The YouTube video shows the automatic system failed to recognize the green bollard and even with the quick intervention from a claimed well experienced FSD driver, the car collided with the green bollard. The public should not be forced to be at risk for allowing this automatic system with numerous dangerous behaviors to experiment on the public street. Tesla should have tested this in its closed course by building its own green bollard and then it can crash all it wants but not at the expense of public safety. https://youtu.be/Zl9rM8D3k34
