>The car was making a turn. Something felt off—the steering wheel jerked one way, then the other, and the car decelerated in a way I didn’t expect. I turned the wheel to take over. I don’t know exactly what the system was doing, or why. I only know that somewhere in those seconds, we ended up colliding with a wall.
>I don’t know enough about what actually happened during my accident to say that Tesla’s technology crashed the car.
The cause may have been the combination of FSD and human takeover. When the car fucks up, the driver can take over poorly. Sort of how 'overcorrection' on a highway could spin you out of control.
There is a gray area where a car's guidance drives stupidly, yet would not actually result in an accident. The hot take is that a driver with his face buried in his phone the whole time may have had a better outcome.
I agree with the general premise of your hot take.
In a modern car with modern tires in non-inclement weather taking a left turn at the speeds autopilot will drive (i.e. not 99th percentile race car behavior) there should be enough time to avoid this outcome if you're even only casually observing it.
