Warning! to all Tesla drivers, WE HAD AN ACCIDENT ON FSD that should not have been and I wanted to share what happened so it will not happen to you.
My partner and I were in Yellowstone National Park coming down a curvy hill. The car was on FSD and I was in the drivers seat. My partner had opened the computer screen looking for a function and opened "controls" to look for it. He tried to scroll down not realizing he was already at the bottom of the page and inadvertently touched the "NEUTRAL" icon.
Without any warning the car came out of FSD. We were going down a hill around a curve, I took over immediately and we were lucky enough to only hit a guardrail causing damage to the side of the Tesla but fortunately no known injuries.
Again, His thumb inadvertently hit the "Neutral" button while scrolling and this caused the car to come out of FSD while it was moving at speed down a highway. We in no way desired the car to be in neutral and it shocked and scared the crap out of us.
If we had been going 80 MPH down the freeway or on a curve without a guardrail...this could have been much worse.
Because it came out of FSD automatically by the car itself, the new screen that pops up asking you why you came out of FSD did not appear so feed back was not sent and I did not have the sense at the moment to send a clip, although I am not sure how to do this anyway.
I did save the memory stick and the police have taken the video to analyze further.
I could not find a reasonable way to contact Tesla and inform them of this "neutralising" function and advise this should probably be turned off in FSD or made much harder to activate it.
If anyone knows how to share this further with Tesla, please let me know.
And everyone who is using FSD, please be cautious about scrolling the control screen when you are driving.
Here is a picture of the icon/button I am talking about.
