14.2.2.2... In a 35 MPH zone, hurry and standard are driving 35-36. In a 45 MPH zone hurry and standard drive 42 mph. In a 50, hurry does 52. In a 55 MPH zone, hurry does 65. In a 65 MPH highway - hurry does 80. Basically it's all over the place and totally inconsistent for different speed zones and relative driving speed. Hopefully .3 is a little better when I get it.
Spoiler alert: it isn't.

Driving late one night across the country, FSD startled me, braking HARD. Then, I saw the skunk making it's way across the highway, turned around as the CT approached. Saved the skunks life, as I don't think that I saw it quickly enough. Thought I hit save dashcam, but I failed!

Up to date on all software version. All 14.2 versions are abysmal and steps back. I think the biggest issue is when it turns either left or right and has two or three lanes to turn into, it either makes super wide turns across lanes that you would normally take. When there are other cars around it seems fine. Also hesitant lane changes on freeways when when blinker is on.

Speed control remains ... uninspiring.

Just honk afterwards next time (assuming you have the setting set to save video on honk). It'll save the moment and typically a LOT of time before it too (i.e. 15 minutes at least, may be from the start of the drive).

This is the single biggest reason why I forced myself to drive with FSD the majority of the time. I have had the truck stop for deer I never saw (and an idiot running a red light) that I have a practice now of a keeping a running total of insurance deductible saved. It's funny, when it happens now, my wife and turn to each other and say, another $1,000 saved. We're at $18k! We live in deer country.

I've had this version for a few days, but today I noticed when I toggle off FSD due to a pothole or it's doing something stupid, now I can't immediately reactivate like I did before. It is like a 5 second delay, which seems like a mini penalty for disabling it.

Is this something new?

FSD swerved me away from a dead skunk today, reminded me of your post. If only it can avoid potholes...

Yes!! I've hit 2 deer with previous trucks and my daughter also hit 1. $$. Have to watch out for bears sprinting across roads too.
I'll turn back on the honk to save dashcam. Think I took it off when we got the new horn & was testing it out often!

I’m curious about the destination parking options. At one point I could select Driveway or Garage or something for Home, but that seems to have disappeared in 2025.45.7, only Curbside or Parking Lot offered.

Not seen yet, but for Home I’d like to be able to set nose-in vs back-in so that my charging cord will reach. It has randomly done either, with the wrong one (back in) most often.
For what it’s worth, the 14.2.2.4 update brought back the DRIVEWAY option which had disappeared. 2025.45.9.1

I just finished a drive that I have done several times with no disengagements to or from my destination. Today I had four disengagementā€˜s. Two in each direction. All of the disengagement’s were a result of the truck trying to take or failing to take the proper transition lane. One of them I did not catch in time and the truck took the wrong highway split and I had to go 15 minutes out of my way because the next exit was 5 miles in the wrong direction. The truck did take that exit and get me back in the right direction. It seems like the FSD is not interacting with the navigation correctly.

I had yesterday a similar experience, not taking the right ā€œsplitā€ at a freeway to freeway transition. I ā€œblamedā€ the newly added HOV lane usage for what happened to me. Going south on a highway (101) the connector to another freeway (85) going south has two ways: the two right lanes, or the HOV lane on the left side. That HOV lane becomes two lanes about two miles before, where the left most is the flyover connector and the second from the left is a straight through HOV lane. As it was after 8pm, FSD chose to drive in the HOV lane, which I thought was smart as I was by myself, but after 8pm the lanes are open for all. Where the one lane HOV becomes two lanes it continued in the right lane of the two. As we were approaching the split, it didn’t move to the left most lane and this missed the flyover. FSD detected that and recalculated a new route, but that took two more exists and a surface street detour.
I was preparing to intervene for if FSD would decide too late to move to the left most lane, but it didn’t make any jerky moves, so I did not intervene and it went straight through.
Since this ā€œuse HOV lanes when allowedā€ is relative new my thought is that FSD was not (yet) smart enough to understand multiple HOV lanes where one ā€splits offā€.

For people who know this 101/85 flyover and have a good memory, this is where many, many years ago a Tesla model S on autopilot hit the separator and the driver died. One of the very first, if not the first, ā€œautopilot killsā€ stories. It was all over the press, how unsafe Tesla was, family had lawsuits against Tesla. That is why I had my hands very close to the squircle, to correct course if FSD would have acted tentative.

For completeness: all the times I used FSD on this route before, it never used the HOV lanes as I had that disabled, and moved to the right lanes to change from 101 to 85.
