Even Australians who don't reside in Melbourne struggle with hook turns across tram tracks. So this looks promising.

FSD13 is absolutely incredible. Use it on 99% of my commutes, in regions that are very similar to Brisbane and regional Australia (in the U.S.). It will have zero issues there, well maybe if you are off roading the Outback manual control would be needed for guidance.

The real test will be seeing if it can handle Sydney drivers.

It handles Miami ones just fine. Child’s play. In Sydney you will never see 80 mph or rage.

I want to see it in Calgary. Specifically West bound Bow Trail to South Bound 26th st SW. It's much less common now, but when new the number of numbnuts who started to make the left, see the red light for the cross street then stop, ON THE C-TRAIN TRACKS!

The army would make us sit the Victorian road test at the start of every driver's course in Puckapunyal. It had questions on hook turns, just in case we were going to drive our armoured vehicle around central Melbourne.

I live in Brisbane and I can think of hundreds of situations where FSD would fail miserably. And that's coming from a Tesla enthusiast

I can think of hundreds also, but the ones I think of are seldom encountered, such as clearing a multi car pileup or responding to cross guard or police hand signals. This is where Grok AI will come in to play. The human operator can give voice commands to instruct the Tesla what to do in weird situations. If what you are saying is true, Tesla would take the challenge. AI in FSD is machine learning and will need to confront your scenarios to train the network. I say bring it on. It is being trained in India as we speak which outside of highways can be machine learning hell. But that is Hell we need training on.

it feels like the steering is about to fall off anytime on its own cant wait to see it in action in my country tho

It handles Chinese traffic.

Has it been to Hurstville, Eastwood or Chatswood though? :p

taska9 2025-05-20 08:17

Have you seen any of the Chinese videos? Check them out.

I lived in Brisbane, it's no different to any other city that FSD is already operating it

Oxi_Dat_Ion 2025-05-22 00:25

I'm not saying Brisbane is special. I'm saying I know of situations where it would fail. Probably other cities also would have them. And you clearly have not seen Lindum station intersection.

I'd take it straight away onto the Gympie and Strathpine Road interchange and see how it goes
