Deer that don’t look twice before crossing a road, outrageous lane changers, red light offenders, and pedestrians are just some of the crash and near-crash footage caught on camera by Tesla owners in this video that you do not want to miss.

Tesla Vison in Real Life

Are you still not convinced that Tesla Vison with Autopilot can do the job that is so much part of the discussion these days about Tesla and it’s FSD capabilities?

In this special Tesla Autopilot episode we get to see how FSD Beta, Enhanced Autopilot and Automatic Emergency braking saves lives, avoids crashes and how it reacts to different situations. Teslacam Stories is a series of Tesla owners real experiences told by the Tesla Dashcam and Sentry Mode videos. All incidents are recorded from Tesla vehicles and submitted to this channel by other Tesla enthusiast. I contact each person who send me their videos to talk with them and learn more about their story and to follow up what happened after what we see on their video…From the footage and additional information, a viewer can learn the consequences of bad driving and can educate his/her self with better driving safety. This process also gives the videos a great educational value. It is my desire to add my own unique and creative value in a transformative way to ensure you enjoy and learn from the videos being presented.

So, sit back and judge for yourself how well Autopilot does function and ask yourself if in Autopilot’s place, could you really have done a better job responding to these 15 episodes of real life scenarios.

Final Thoughts

There’s no denying that the scenarios we’ve just seen are ones that we have all experienced on the road. And, in several cases Autopilot saved the day. But if there is one take-home message to be gleaned from this video it is of the importance of having the driver behind wheel, awake and aware of his or her surroundings at all times due to that in spite of Autopilot’s abilities, human intervention is still required in some instances.
