Thank you for the video, and the ride along. So I am new to the Model S coming from a Tesla Model 3, and I am on FSD V12.3.3., and I haven’t seen that much of an improvement from the previous version, and not only that I was surprised when I had my first phantom braking incident, and luckily no one was following me closely when it happened, but I did have to disengage. So word to the wise, don’t get complacent, keep your eyes, and your mind on your driving, because we’re not there yet, and so having said that, I am very impressed with the progress Tesla has made, and yes, it’s been a long time coming, but I think we’re getting close, but not close enough that we have the car t Elon promised us about 5 or maybe 6 years or so ago that by now we would have a fully capable self driving car/Robo taxis. I would, however, be surprised if by this time next year all Tesla, cars will be fully capable of driving without any human intervention, and that we will have the car Elon promised. Cheers 🥂
I agree, after following and owning Tesla's since 2016, I think we are still 3-5 years away from full autonomy. However, I do believe version 12 is the biggest leap in an update that I've seen. It's the little things I've noticed.
@@pucaslife Touché! So what I surmise and I think I’m right about this, is that what happened to me wasn’t a disengagement based on phantom braking, and so what happened was because I did not have my hands on the steering wheel applying the necessary force to indicate that my hands were on the steering wheel, and so the system gave me that red steering wheel warning. So I got that twice, but not on the same day, on different days, and so those warnings must become cumulative warnings leading up to why the system recorded that as a strike against me. So I’ve learned my lesson, and I will make an adjustment to my driving habits, to more closely monitor, and keep my hands on the steering wheel in order to avoid getting another strike, as I truly want to see all the nags taking away, and the rules allowing Tesla, and other manufacturers pursuing this technology to give us what we all want, which is a truly hands-free driving experience, which is exactly what I was attempting to do, because to me if the software is good enough, then there shouldn’t be a problem with someone not having their hands physically on the steering wheel at all times, because that defeats the entire process of acclimating drivers to idea of you no longer needing to have your hands on the wheel at all times, however, you still need to maintain control of the vehicle, and to pay attention to what the vehicle is doing, and not become distracted by other things, because the law is still the law, and you cannot drive one of these cars autonomously without a licensed driver behind the wheel, unless of course, you got permission from the government, like some of these so-called ride sharing companies like WAYMO, Cruise, etc. Cheers 🥂
It’s weird it’s been getting longer and longer lately. But about six months ago, you would have to grab the steering wheel about every two minutes or so and just put a slight amount of pressure down on it. That way the car ends up knowing that you’re paying attention.
9:32 Correction when you are on the highway the car is running version 11 not basic autopilot like you stated and this version is not the latest version of fsd
@@pucaslife I don't own a tesla but I watched a lot of videos because I am disabled and really care about this software because I don't drive. As far as I can gather the highway stack is a updated version of 11.49 don't know the exact version that is running on the highway but we speculate that it is a higher version from 11.49 it acts like 11.49 with minor improvements. As for the city streets the latest version of version 12 that is on costumer cars is 12.3.2 which has the new auto parking feature now they have said that you they are doing A B testing with versions 12.3.1 and 12.3.2 for this weekend and I just got a notification on refit that 12.3.3 just started to roll out to employees today so they are probably taking the best out of 12.3.1 and 12.3.2 and putting in 12.3.3. New versions are going to be flying out because now Tesla isn't comput limited anymore. Look I will understand if you don't want take my word on this because I don't own a Tesla but I follow this to the T and I know that I am going to get other people who claim that I don't know what I am talking about but I just wanted to I watch a lot of videos on this subject because of my life and some day I will be able to take a ride all by myself so that why I follow this so closely. Let me know if you have any other questions I don't know everything but I know a lot
You are lucky, I thought the latest version was 12.3.1. Watching my video how do you compare 12.3.3? Are there any major differences from what you saw my video?
If one has selected "agressive mode" then at 4:11, it should be on the outer left lane. We have drivers that are impatient and will disengage and say it is too slow, drives like a grandparents in a Corolla. When choosing "aggresive" Tesla should have an additional waiver saying you are responsible for speeding tickets as FSD may go 20mph above speed limit. If car in front of you and approaching traffic light and you are in left lane and no one on right light, FSD will move to open lane. no one will prefer staying behind someone in that case, unless you select "chill"
I always wash my Tesla at home. Do you have swirl marks?
Random question. Since you’re on a model S how many times have you had to change your tires? How long have they lasted before replacing?

Thanks for this video. How often do you have to grab the steering wheel before it chimes? Also is it a hard grab or just tap on the yoke?

OK, thank you, what is the latest version of 11 that is running on the highway? And what is the latest version of 12 that you have?

Umm. I am on 12.3.3, so this version is not the newest..
Correct!

4:24 is unacceptable for anyone choosing aggressive mode
