Tesla Full-Self Driving Veers Off Road, Hits Tree, and Flips Car for No Obvious Reason (No Serious Injuries, but Scary) (fuelarc.com)

A 2025 Tesla Model 3 in Full-Self Driving mode drives off of a rural road, clips a tree, loses a tire, flips over, and comes to rest on its roof. Luckily, the driver is alive and well, able to post about it on social media.

I just don't see how this technology could possibly be ready to power an autonomous taxi service by the end of next week.

For many years the "supervised" was not included, AFAIK Tesla was forced to do that.
And in this case "supervised" isn't even enough, because the car made an abrupt unexpected maneuver, instead of asking the driver to take over in time to react.

The driver isn’t supposed to wait for the car to tell them to take over lol. The driver is supposed to take over when necessary.

The attention required to prevent these types of sudden crashes negates the purpose of FSD entirely.
