A Tesla, equipped with the Full-Self Driving feature, faced difficulties in a recent encounter with a traffic worker. The incident was captured in a video posted by Scott Woods, known for his Tesla-focused content on YouTube.
While the Tesla successfully navigated roads without human intervention, it struggled when confronted by a construction worker directing traffic. The vehicle veered off course and came to a halt, causing an awkward situation until Woods took control of the steering wheel.
The video sparked criticism from Tesla skeptics, highlighting concerns about the reliability of self-driving technology in challenging scenarios. Recent viral videos have shown similar incidents where Teslas on autopilot faced unexpected obstacles.
Despite ongoing investigations and safety concerns, self-driving cars continue to operate on public roads, raising questions about their readiness for diverse real-world conditions. Will these vehicles ultimately enhance road safety or pose new risks to drivers and pedestrians? The debate continues.
