So you're saying that it is literally impossible to use FSD on the bay bridge? If so, why hasn't Tesla pointed this subtlety out?

- redox99 4y agoLiterally impossible is kind of a strong statement, but yeah people have driven there and shown that it uses Autopilot there (because it's classified as highway on the map data), which is the expected behavior as FSD does not support highways yet.
- gibsonf1 4y agoInteresting, I wonder what the behavior is when someone turns FSD on when they are already on a highway as claimed in this case, as opposed to someone who has it on before entering. Maybe that's the issue, if you turn FSD on when already on a highway, the car starts FSD, senses its on a highway then given its programming that FSD should not operate on a highway, consequently hits the brakes? Tesla knows whatever happened in fact for sure.
- redox99 4y agoYou can't "choose" which one[1]. It's the same button/stalk. The car chooses by itself. This is almost 100% the driver just confusing the name or a slip of the tongue, which is understandable. He bought FSD, he probably has it enabled and uses it, and knows that on highways the UI changes. Just doesn't know that when the UI changes it's the old autopilot. [1] Technically you can disable FSD beta, thus it will always use autopilot
