No way would I trust a drive assist in those kinds of conditions.
Did the driver make the correction at the end or the vehicle? 
Id treat self driving like riding your bike hands free. Fun and relaxing but always ready to take control
This is what could go wrong using autopilot in heavy fog.
Wow I can’t imagine how the person responsible for driving didn’t see the flashing lights and moving train…….
People are so bad at driving, that not even Tesla can help them. There is a time and place to use autopilot at least use common sense
“Driver nearly runs into train because they were dumb enough to place their life in the hands of “Full Self Driving” mode.
– Fixed
Did the driver fall asleep? FSD is not and has never been a fully autonomous mode. It’s an advanced cruise control, that’s all. It requires supervision, because the chances it’s going to make a mistake is astronomical.
He’s claimed this has happened before as well. How many near death episodes does one need until you learn from your mistakes?
Concur with the other poster who said ‘This seems like base autopilot behavior and not FSD.’
My guess is someone’s free trial expired and they were still expecting FSD reactions.
Unless something has changed, Full Self-Driving is intended for use on highways and city streets. This appears to be neither of these. It’s not autopilot. You’re not supposed to be using it out here like this, and this is exactly why.
You have to be an idiot to use this feature in that kind of fog
Remember that this isn’t for us. This is about creating a product that allows businesses to increase their profitability through reduced costs.
Driverless vehicles aren’t about convenience for the passenger. They are about getting something from point a to b without having to pay a driver.
The tests are about reducing risks to the point that insurance is affordable enough for it to become scalable at mass levels.
Crashes won’t even be a problem; so long as they aren’t fatal. They will probably be commonplace, but acceptable to business, for a good few decades.
But do we want this?
You get framed as anti-progressive, or you get sold the line that you are blinded by the fallacy of human self-belief (I.e. thousands of road deaths per year could be eliminated, trust us, even if we still can’t prove it).
Why did the fucking idiot not brake manually?
FSD or manual, there’s heavy fog and that big fucking display has got to be showing a railroad crossing coming up.
The car owner is an idiot on multiple levels.

Was that a driver save? Did they have to take over??
Fuckin idiots
Would auto drive even activate in such low visibility? Sure shit on Tesla all you want but if the drive was dumb enough to turn it on in them conditions I dunno what to tell you
So I guess the driver was just asleep and didn’t bother to hit the breaks at all
My favourite comment on the original posting was along the lines of “Tesla fans insist that even though it’s called Full Self Driving, drivers must pay attention at all times.
Same Tesla stans say that FSD is practically finished and ready for use”
Using self drive in the fog? Sounds like a Tesla driver. I think a requirement to be a Tesla driver is to not have a brain at this point
My self driving took me 40 in a 25 a few days ago which was wayyyy to fast for the surroundings. The crazy thing is that the screen showed a picture of the 25MPH sign so it knew it was speeding. I only turn my speed higher by 5 MPH.
I felt like at any moment a car could pull out of a driveway or a person animal could put one foot in the road and be demolished. I’m turning it off for a few years, I’m not going to be a guinea pig for this shit.
Tesla thanks you for your edge case. Lol
Who the F let a car drive in that condition.
Dude really? How on earth could you be dumb enough to trust it in those conditions?
Yeah, insurance will not be covering this for several reasons. Furthermore the driver should be cited and charged for damages.
FSD does not work when the cameras have low visibility
Something tells me this was the drivers fault
Who TF wants on Full Drive in the middle of a dense fog? DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL SAFER?
Driver fault for sure
This has nothing to do with Tesla and everything to do with people completely surrendering the control of a vehicle.
Its wild to me that people want to fit in so bad that they still purchase these cars lmfao
Ah ha. If you’re stupid enough to buy a Tesla with all the fuck-ups then you deserve to hit a train
Still driver’s fault. How TF do you even get that close without intervening?
I mean, to think self-driving means you can read a book or something while letting a computer drive a metal can at high speeds is INSANE. But people, right ?
What idiot would let a car drive itself at this point? The technology is still decades away from being fit for purpose.
It’s almost understandable. The fog and lights gave the impression of a clear road ahead. You shouldn’t use self driving with fog !
It seems that optical sensors by itself is not enough; self driving needs lidar. Musk did not want to use Lidar, citing that humans runs on optical sensors just fine; he agrees now that Lidar may be necessary, as his former engineer suggested.
Fucking idiot if they were using FSD in fog like that.
Tesla needs to rebrand this self driving as assistance driving.
Why the hell would you be in self driving mode in thick fog? Lol idiot
How dumb is one to have let it go that far before they realized the car wasn’t going to stop? I swear only the dumb purchase these cars.
That’s why they say for you to keep your eyes on the road and be ready for corrections, and the Full Self Driving is called BETA for a reason
Definition of a MORON!
Overpay for a Tesla, pay additional fee for auto pilot, note 55 mph speed limit, verify foggy conditions, accelerate vehicle to 60 mph, set Tesla to auto pilot because moron can’t see through fog, nothing to see outside so watch Harry Potter on phone instead, laugh during the Hogwarts Express scenes, realize train whistle is real, distract self away from movie just in time to turn steering thingy, criticize TESLA, blame TESLA, demand TESLA video for proof, run as fast as you can to NBC, because the world must know how bad this TESLA system is, tell insurance TESLA owes them money, hire lawyer to sue TESLA, pay double on car insurance next 10 years, donate car to church to let them pay the haz-mat fees on lithium battery disposal, write off loss on taxes, buy another TESLA….
Am I on the right track?
