This was admitted by Musk on Twitter following the fatal crash in Florida:

- ceterum_censeo 10y agoIt was a secondary discriminating sensor, but the latest Autopilot 8 upgrade retasks radar to be "a primary control sensor without requiring the camera to confirm visual image recognition": https://www.tesla.com/blog/upgrading-autopilot-seeing-world-radar https://www.tesla.com/blog/upgrading-autopilot-seeing-world-...
- AceJohnny2 10y agoIndeed. And I absolutely do not trust them on it. Their radar hardware just isn't good enough to reliably do that.
- ceterum_censeo 10y agoDitto. It also seems strange to be able to retask their radar from secondary to primary control.
