Unprotected-Left-Turn

Tonight I received FSD Beta v11.4.1 and so I wanted to create a new blog post for all of my v11.4 videos that I’ll be posting over the next few weeks. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/XazoLbapxJI Tesla - FSD Beta 11.4.1 - Chowen Ave UPL Torture Test This video contains footage recorded on the evening of May 13th, 2023 of FSD Beta 11.4.1 taking my unprotected left (UPL) turn torture test onto Chowen Ave S from highway MN-13 S. I previously attempted this test w/ FSD Beta 11.3.6 (see link below). Unlike with v11.3, v11.4.1 exhibited none of the lane selection issues that we previously witnessed towards the end of each attempt. ...

Here is a complete list of all of my drive videos that I have recorded with FSD Beta 11.3.x: https://youtu.be/-5oQmRBqvMc Tesla - FSD Beta 11.3.6 - North Metro Test Loop (Zero Disengagements) This video contains footage recorded on April 10th, 2023 of FSD Beta 11.3.6 driving me from my home (NE Minneapolis) to my parents’ house (Coon Rapids, MN). Since the 37th Ave NE construction project started earlier this week, I adjusted the beginning of the route to navigate around this particular section of road. ...

After a few month delay in FSD Beta content the planets aligned where I got a new FSD Beta build and the roads so happened to be clear (rare for this time of year in Minnesota). I have been busy testing 10.69.25.2 and minus an annoying regression with the intersection of 37th Ave NE & Central Ave NE (Northeast Minneapolis) this build has been pretty solid for me so far. ...

After a bit of a lull in FSD Beta content I received 10.69.3 earlier this morning (2022-11-02) and have been busy testing ever since. All videos related to 10.69.3 will be posted here. https://youtu.be/SC1cYNI1IRo Tesla - FSD Beta 10.69.3 - St Anthony Pkwy UPL Turn Pt 1 This video contains footage recorded on the morning of November 2nd, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.69.3 attempting 3 UPL turns onto St Anthony Pkwy from Johnson St NE (NE Minneapolis). There was not a lot of traffic during this time of day so I’ll be posting another video later tonight once rush hour hits. ...

Early this morning my Model 3 was included in the early deployment wave of FSD Beta 10.69.2.2. Even though I’m on vacation I did actually take my Model 3 with me so I was able to do a drive around Arcadia, CA to see if I recognized any changes in behavior when compared to 10.69.2. https://youtu.be/oTitm65ok8s Tesla - FSD Beta 10.69.2.2 - First Impressions Around Arcadia, CA This video contains footage recorded on the morning of September 19th, 2022 of FSD Beta 10.69.2.2 driving me around Arcadia, CA. On this drive I recognized some increased confidence with chuck-style unprotected left turns (w/ medians) as well as better detection of flashing yellow turn lights. This build seems to get closer to the confidence that was originally experienced by OG testers with 10.69.0. Keep up the great work Autopilot team! ...

After a busy last couple of weeks testing FSD Beta 10.69.1 & 10.69.1.1 I received 10.69.2 yesterday and had the opportunity to do some testing around NE Minneapolis. Right off the bat I recognized 10.69.2 is much better about detecting VRUs (especially at distance) however in some cases it seems a little too eager to hit the brakes when approaching a VRU waiting to cross the intersection, even when traffic is closely following behind. I plan to do a few more drives tomorrow before I leave for California so stay tuned for more 10.69 content! ...
