Mine drove me from my driveway, through my neighborhood, through stop signs, railroad crossings, stop lights, interchanges, highways, on and off ramps, 85 miles an hour and down to a crawl in heavy and light traffic, in rain and on clear days, almost 200 miles round trip once a week for a year. But I'm in the U.S. with access to the FSD stack. I've driven rentals with advanced TACC tech, and they have failed to impress ( with the exception of Blue Cruise, I haven't had a chance to try that yet). If you get a chance to drive a Tesla enrolled in "FSD (Supervised)" as they call it now, I highly recommend it. It will get mad at you if you aren't looking straight ahead though, and the "keep your hands on the wheel" nags generally only happen if conditions get shitty or you play with the screen/stop paying attention to the road.
That's fascinating. Especially the rain part, because our Tesla's driving assistant just does not work in bad weather. I cannot imagine how it is technical possible to get a camera-based system to work reliably in bad weather without some mechanism to keep the cameras clean. Our rear camera is basically unusable during winter unless we get out of the car and clean it every single time we need it.
Thank you for your advise!
