I still drive like I rode my motorcycle: looking at every car on the road and trying to figure out how they could kill me, and then responding accordingly.

  That's the only way. Because it doesn't take a huge percentage of distracted drivers to pose a concrete danger. But I've seen more than one Tesla making weird moves and given how many of those there are here I'm not quite sure whether that is more or less frequent than with other brands but what I do notice is the severity of the moves and they tend to be pretty wild. As in: half a lane wide sudden moves. Of course that could just as easily be Tesla drivers that are themselves in control of their car. But I strongly suspect FSD to be at the root of these, they certainly don't look like the kind of thing a driver would do voluntarily, but as a panic response to a vehicle doing something out of the ordinary it would match just fine. What really gets me is that people would then not return their vehicle as defective (or never ever again use such a feature). I sold my previous car after it twice false triggered on the auto emergency braking failure and I would expect other car owners to do the same thing.

  (Responding to jacquesm because thread depth exceeded) > half a lane wide sudden moves In 10k autopilot km's I've never seen that. Yes there is some breaking sometimes, but no swerves yet. And yes panic breaking pisses me off and lane departure alarms almost caused to rage and return the car.
