NYC driving requires you to be a maniac especially during high volume hours. And cabs don't give a toss they have the right of way no matter what.

FSD v13 will be out shortly.

Lol. It just needs more time to learn the driving mannerisms of the Northeast. As you can see with multiple cars zooming around it, we don't have the patience for all those slow turns, leaving gaps, overly yielding to pedestrians, and stopping on yellows. What we don't hear are the horns from other cars. Lol.

​​​​What I did like is that the lack of lane markings didn't hinder its ability to complete its route through the congestion, and it did squeeze through tight areas and figure out which cars were double parked.

It's a start, but would love to see more defensive driving programmed in that can better handle these much smaller and congested NE city streets.

it is very unlikely that FSD will drive crazy, that will cause uproar after few accident videos.

another new test... (and he mentions having driven across the country and back with no phantom breaking, at all). very impressive although initial 'summon' test didn't work for some reason.

We're heading down to FL (bit town) next month in the Y. I'll spend the $99 for FSD for the month. I'll report back my impressions if we make it back unscathed.

Are you heading down I-95 thru Jacksonville?

If so please let me know how it does because that's a mess thru there.
