Honestly, you need to reflect on your driving habits. FSD has only been usable for two or three years maybe? And you already encountered MULTIPLE situations requiring active safety intervention to save you during this time?
You cannot rely on the extra safety it provides. A driver with basic competence should be able to avoid most risks through anticipation before they happen.
All of the scenarios involve circumstances we could not control. For example, someone pushing into our lane on the motorway in the blind spot, requiring evasive manoeuvre to avoid. It's possible Danish drivers are careless or aggressive, but I think it's more likely you just don't realise how many close calls and evasive manoeuvres you need to perform on an annual basis with average driving kilometers and regular defensive driving.

It's too late. These safety features are saving lives all over the world, every day. As per the Danish and Dutch regulators, FSD is already safer than the average driver. I would prefer that all the drivers on the road are using this technology than manually controlling their cars. People make all kinds of mistakes which FSD does not.
