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.

Just no footage from the interior camera, no proof of FSD being used.

Others have pointed out critical holes in his story - namely that he claims that he was on a version of FSD that was not released at the time of his crash.

The link I gave you is the place he posted this. And you can see what version he says he was using:

I find it entertaining honestly there is so many conspiracy theories around my incident people saying it’s not a Tesla, the robo taxi drama, both political sides think I’m anti Elon, others saying that I wasn’t on 13.2.8 I definitely put mine on the beta channel to get that version as quick as I did

So you are parroting bullshit, the current version is 13.2.9.

Just no footage from the interior camera, no proof of FSD being used.

Funny how people in the thread I linked to you, who drive Tesla themselves don't question this?
Some people believe the FSD saw the shadow of the pole as a curb in the road, or maybe even the base of a wall. And that's why the FSD decided to "evade".
There are plenty examples in the comments from people who drive Tesla themselves, about how it steers into oncoming traffic, one describes how his followed black skid marks in the road wearing wildly left to right, another describes how his made an evasive maneuver because of a patch in the road. It just goes on and on with how faulty FSD is.

IDK what Tesla cars have what cameras. But I've seen plenty reporting on Tesla FSD, and none of it is good.
So why do you believe it's more likely to be human error? When if it was a human not paying attention, it would be much more likely to weer slowly. rather than making an abrupt idiotic maneuver?

To me it seems you are the one who lacks evidence in your claims.
And problem with Tesla logging is that it's a proprietary system that only Tesla has access to, that system needs to be open for everybody to examine.

What he says is what's questionable though, because he says he was on 13.2.8 but that wasn't available to the public at the time of his crash. Being on the beta channel means nothing, he still wouldn't have gotten it because it wasn't available on the beta channel on that day.

So you are parroting bullshit, the current version is 13.2.9.

How am I parroting bullshit? The current version is 13.2.9? Great - has nothing to do with what I said.

Funny how people in the thread I linked to you, who drive Tesla themselves don’t question this?

Some of them did, because he says he was on 13.2.8 which added different camera recordings which aren't available on his car. He clearly didn't know this when he lied to say he was on 13.2.8, because if he was on it then these recordings would have been there. Reddit being reddit, and the internet being the internet - people lie. Most of the people in there claiming that their teslas tried to do the same thing are likely 12 year olds who've never driven a car before. Don't believe everything you read on the internet, ESPECIALLY on reddit lol.

Also if you haven't realized, hating on anything tesla/musk related is the cool thing to do at the moment, especially people on left-leaning sites like Reddit and Lemmy.

Some people believe the FSD saw the shadow of the pole as a curb in the road, or maybe even the base of a wall. And that’s why the FSD decided to “evade”.

Cool, doesn't mean they're right. The FSD saw shadows of poles and trees and power lines all the way up to that second too. Well it would have if it was engaged.

To me it seems you are the one who lacks evidence in your claims.

My claim is that it wasn't using FSD because he has provided ZERO evidence that he WAS using FSD. I'm the one asking for evidence to support the claim, and he has provided NONE. Remember - I'm not the one making the initial claim. I'm the one asking for evidence to support the claim.

Even if I was the one that needed to provide evidence, I have done so - lied about the version. No interior footage to prove it wasn't driver error. Didn't reach out to tesla about their car trying to kill him.

And problem with Tesla logging is that it’s a proprietary system that only Tesla has access to, that system needs to be open for everybody to examine.

Tesla have a program you can download to review your logs supposedly.
