Comment on Can Tesla's Self-Driving Software Handle Bus-Only Lanes? Not Reliably, No.

It switched autopilot off when the parking sensors (ultrasonic/radar range finder with a very narrow range) detected the wall.

If Tesla isn’t doing that to hide deficiencies from NHTSA investigations, I’ll eat my shoe.

Also FSD is an app running on the same hardware and camera systems as autopilot, what would make it better at “seeing” through mist or a reasonable facsimile of the road up ahead?

No it didn’t switch it off because of that.

FSD and autopilot do different things using the same data. It’s fact that they behave differently.

  From NHTSA IN 2022:
  
  “The agency’s analysis of these sixteen subject first responder and road maintenance vehicle crashes indicated that Forward Collision Warnings (FCW) activated in the majority of incidents immediately prior to impact and that subsequent Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) intervened in approximately half of the collisions. On average in these crashes, Autopilot aborted vehicle control less than one second prior to the first impact,” the report reads.

    So they tried to hide it from them by explicitly logging when it switched on and off in the days that they report to them? Huh?
