A 2025 Tesla Model 3 in Full-Self Driving mode drives off of a rural road, clips a tree, loses a tire, flips over, and comes to rest on its roof. Luckily, the driver is alive and well, able to post about it on social media.
I just don’t see how this technology could possibly be ready to power an autonomous taxi service by the end of next week.
What false advertising? It’s called “Full Self Driving (Supervised)”.
For many years the “supervised” was not included, AFAIK Tesla was forced to do that.
And in this case “supervised” isn’t even enough, because the car made an abrupt unexpected maneuver, instead of asking the driver to take over in time to react.
The driver isn’t supposed to wait for the car to tell them to take over lol. The driver is supposed to take over when necessary.
The attention required to prevent these types of sudden crashes negates the purpose of FSD entirely.
No if you look at Waymo as an example, they are actually autonomous, and stop to ask for assistance in situations they are “unsure” how to handle.
But even if you claim was true, in what way was this a situation where the driver could deem it necessary to take over? It was clear road ahead, and nothing in view to indicate any kind of problem, when the car made a sudden abrupt left causing it to roll upside down.
They can’t stop and ask for assistance at 100km/h on a highway.
I hope Tesla/Musk address this accident and get the telemetry from the car, cause there’s no evidence that FSD was even on.
According to the driver it was on FSD, and it was using the latest software update available.

Maybe the point is then, that Tesla FSD shouldn’t be legally used on a highway.
But it probably shouldn’t be used anywhere, because it’s faulty as shit.
And why can’t is slow down to let the driver take over in a timely manner, when it can break for no reason.
It was tested in Germany on Autobahn where it did that 8 times within 6 hours!!!
According to the driver, with zero evidence backing up the claim. With how much of a hard on everyone has for blaming Elon musk for everything, and trying to drag teslas stock down, his accident is a sure fire way to thousands of Internet karma and e-fame on sites like Reddit and Lemmy. Why doesn’t he just show us the interior camera?
Looking at his profile he’s milking this for all it’s worth - he’s posted the same thread to like 8 different subs lol. He’s karma whoring. He probably wasn’t even the one involved in the crash.
Looked at his twitter which he promoted on there too, and of course he tags mark rober and is retweeting everything about this crash. He’s loving the attention and doing everything he can to get more.
Also he had the car for less than 2 weeks and said he used FSD “all the time”……in a brand new car he’d basically never driven……and then it does this catastrophic failure? Yeh nah lol. Also as others in some of the threads have pointed out, the version of FSD he claims it was on wasn’t out at the time of his accident.
Dudes lying through his teeth.
There have been other similar cases lately, which clearly indicate problems with the car.
The driver has put up the footage from all the cameras of the car, so he has done what he can to provide evidence.

It’s very clear from the comments, that some have personally experienced similar things, and others have seen reporting of it.
This is not an isolated incident. It’s just has better footage than most.
Also this happened in February. He never reached out to Tesla? He never requested the data to show that FSD was engaged? In that thread he says he only just did it. There’s also an official Tesla software program you can use to get the full logs, but as expected he hasn’t done that.
Dudes lying for sure.
Just no footage from the interior camera, no proof of FSD being used.
Others have pointed out critical holes in his story - namely that he claims that he was on a version of FSD that was not released at the time of his crash.
