Chuck Cook films Tesla FSD Beta 8.2 attempting unprotected left turns across forward-facing traffic, using a drone for a third-person view. Eight tests are shown with the car's on-screen visualizations.

Used mostly as evidence of FSD Beta's limitations, for example pulling out in front of fast traffic.

What videos would those be, like this one? ▶ this video Tesla’s safety claims are wildly overstated, as documented here: link In aggregate, Tesla’s FSD is demonstrably not up to the task. “Limited driver assist” is a much more fair assessment of what their software is actually capable of than the “full self driving” branding.

Watch this entire video: ▶ this video Tesla would kill you half the time making this unprotected left turn. Waymo can make unprotected left turns and have never killed or injured anyone or even bent metal in this situation. :P It's not a particularly challenging left turn. And the goal is to kill you less than .0001% of the time making left turns. Yes, Waymo tries to avoid them in route planning, but it still takes them if necessary.

It's a win. But-- if it's just driving freeway miles and lanekeeping and doing basic collision avoidance-- there's a lot of cars doing that and Tesla is in first place but not strongly differentiated from GM, etc. Other cars can provide you this "less fatiguing road trip" experience. If you want it to actually drive and be able to remove your attention, well, something like this ▶ this video makes the present limits rather clear.
