Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Recently, Fred Lambert, a reporter from foreign media electrek, released a video testing Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 in the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina. The video shows that during the test, there were several "ghost brakes" in this version of FSD, in which the vehicle suddenly slowed down unnecessarily and almost drove the car to a cliff.

Fred was always ready to take over at any time during the test. In this test, Fred took over only once, when Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 drove the car to the cliff.

Overall, during this 13-minute test, the overall performance of Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 is OK, but many "ghost brakes" and wrong judgments are still frightening, and "ghost brakes" and other problems remain to be solved.

First, the performance of low-speed roads is better. Fred said that after identifying pedestrians, he chose to test in the Blue Ridge Mountains because there are few intersections and the road traffic markings are clear. He believes that in this environment, Tesla's FSD will perform very well.

It is also true that in most of the cases in the test, the computer vision inspection system of FSD Beta V10.12 worked well, and Fred's Model 3 remained in the center of the lane.

Halfway through the test, Fred met hikers who were close to the road and had no shoulder cover. Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 quickly detected these people, then the control vehicle slowed down and even planned to drive a little to the left to make way for hikers.

However, in addition to these advantages, Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 version also has some serious disadvantages.

Second, ghost brakes are still high, turning too fast Fred said that the most annoying thing about FSD Beta V10.12 is still the high incidence of "ghost brakes", that is, vehicles suddenly slow down without good reason.

The video shows that the "ghost brake" occurred several times during driving. Although Fred felt that the sudden deceleration was less pronounced when the "ghost brake" occurred, it was probably only because the car was slightly slower in this test.

In addition, Fred also noticed that Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 version also had some inconsistencies in controlling the speed of the vehicle turning. In the video, Tesla's FSD can be seen to control the deceleration of the vehicle at some corners that do not seem to require deceleration, and then control the vehicle to turn sharply at the maximum set speed.

In addition to that, during the 8-mile, 13-minute test, Fred made only one driver takeover, but the takeover was carried out in very dangerous circumstances.

In the 12th minute and 56 seconds of the test, Tesla FSD Beta V10.12 controlled the vehicle to turn so fast that it almost threw Fred off a cliff by the side of the road. When Fred noticed that the car was crossing the two lanes and heading straight to the other side of the road, he immediately hit the brakes, which was very frightening for a moment.

Oddly enough, FSD Beta V10.12 should know that this road has a sharp turn and requires traffic to slow down. Because its speed is 10 miles per hour (16 kilometers per hour) slower than the set speed, but somehow it did not correctly predict that turn.

In addition, from the predicted path (blue line) shown on the interior screen, it is difficult to predict how fast the turn will be in FSD Beta V10.12.

Conclusion: Tesla FSD still needs to be improved. From the test video of Fred, we can see that Tesla's FSD Beta V10.12 still has many problems. Although this version has a great improvement in some straight roads and vehicle recognition, the problems in "ghost braking" and automatic turning remain to be solved.

The test also reminds Tesla car owners that if they use this version of the test software, they still need to maintain a high degree of vigilance and be ready to take over at any time in order to ensure driving safety.
