Tesla Full Self-Driving Beta: Left Turn on Green Yield and Flashing Yellow Lights [VIDEO]

Chuck Cook has shared a video of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving beta (2020.44.10.2) and how it handles left turns on green yield and flashing yellow traffic lights.

This scenario can be tricky for human drivers, let alone autonomous driving software that’s being trained.

The Tesla is able to handle some left turns on green yield but when it got too busy, FSD beta asked the driver to intervene, which is definitely a safer decision. This version of FSD beta still went too fast over railroad tracks in Cook’s case. At times the FSD beta proceeded cautiously through and almost went too slow.

As for going through flashing yellows lights, Full Self-Driving beta slowed down slightly before it proceeded through intersections, slowing down to about 25 mph at times.

Full Self-Driving beta will continue to improve over time. It’s nerve-wracking watching these videos during tricky scenarios at times, but kudos to these beta testers for sharing their experience.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk teased last week its next holiday software update would be ‘fire’, teasing the release would have “so many things you want & some you didn’t know you wanted.”
