A new video shows a Tesla Cybertruck with Full Self-Driving (FSD) engaged almost causing a head-on collision. The incident highlights the ongoing concerns surrounding Tesla's controversial driver assistance technology.
A recent video surfaced, highlighting yet another concerning incident involving Tesla 's controversial Full Self-Driving ( FSD ) system. The footage captures a Cybertruck navigating a straight country road with the driver assistance feature activated. An oncoming SUV approaches, but at the last second, the Cybertruck abruptly attempts to turn left into a driveway. The driver, startled, frantically intervenes, yanking the steering yoke to the right to prevent a head-on collision.
The driver's exclaimed, 'Oh god, Jesus!' reflecting the sheer panic of the situation. A close-up view of the Cybertruck's dashboard display reveals that Tesla's FSD software was indeed planning to cross the oncoming lane, seemingly disregarding the approaching vehicle, which the software did register. This incident serves as a chilling reminder of the potential dangers associated with relying on autonomous driving technology, particularly in real-world scenarios.The Cybertruck owner, identified as chasesmithrel, shared the video on the Cybertruck Owners Club forum, stating that they had recently purchased a 2025 dual motor Cybertruck and were experiencing issues with the FSD system turning into their driveway. They explained that the software persistently attempted to turn into a nearby plant nursery instead of their intended driveway. The owner was recording the incident to demonstrate the problem to their father when the encounter with the oncoming SUV occurred. The post on the forum sparked a discussion among other Cybertruck owners, with some expressing concerns about the reliability and safety of the FSD system, while others acknowledged its potential but urged caution in its use. The incident has raised broader questions about the safety and readiness of autonomous driving technology, especially given Tesla's controversial history with FSD. The company has faced scrutiny and investigations from regulators regarding its driver assistance system. Concerns have been amplified by Musk's recent involvement in the US government, raising fears that he could exert undue influence over regulatory bodies, potentially compromising safety standards for autonomous vehicles
