A 2025 Tesla Model 3 in Full-Self Driving mode drives off of a rural road, clips a tree, loses a tire, flips over, and comes to rest on its roof. Luckily, the driver is alive and well, able to post about it on social media.

I just don’t see how this technology could possibly be ready to power an autonomous taxi service by the end of next week.

    Why was the driver not paying attention and why didn’t they just steer it back into the lane? It’s not called “Full Self Driving (Supervised)” for no reason. Hopefully Tesla get all the telemetry and share why it didn’t stay on the road, and also check if the driver was sleeping or distracted.

      Watch the video. Happens insanely quickly. And on straight road that should be no issue so person’s guard was down

          Can you prove that it wasn’t in self driving mode? Since you are being so inept about a technology that has had several other reports doing the same thing. You are defending the car which is a known POS.
