I was brake checked by a Tesla while driving home on the 10W the other day. My first thought was, "what the hell man, you're in the #1 lane without a car in sight in front of you?!". Then I realized that the car had probably disengaged AP and this involved the cruise control disengaging and slowing (i.e. braking) the car.
I had already known that Tesla drivers using AP was a major cause of slow, too-far-following-distance driving (which is why I take every opportunity to cross in front of a Tesla doing 60ish), but this was a whole 'nother level of literally "fuck you, pay attention until you get home, asshole".
/Rant.
P.S. Tesla drivers are absolutely the new Prius drivers.
Edit: and the fact that the behavior of "if there's a car following don't slow abruptly" isn't a 0-th level if loop in the FSD algorithm is completely inexcusable. Shit needs to be regulated now.
