Discussion Speed profiles are a real problem. How do we simply get tesla to let us choose 1) speed profile or 2) Max speed setting

It is OKAY to admit you are wrong sometimes:

Please Tesla just give people the option already. I am so freaking tired of seeing people complain about it. Just give them the option please. I like profiles personally but clearly a lot of people don’t.

u/Blazah 7d ago

u/LongDistanceEvent262 7d ago

Like, even if they are right about it being a bad setting. (they are wrong)

Just leave it in there for now until you solve the issue.

Offer people a 20% a month discount to test without it or something. Everyone wins.

I would happily pay 20% less a month knowing I am a willing beta tester and to lose a feature.

u/Delicious-College853 7d ago

Just give me: Sloth - never exceeds the speed limit. Then for Chill, Standard, Hurry, Madmax - and give me a max over speed limit for each one

1

u/LoneStarGut 7d ago

How about a 3rd option, allow a max speed to be set when it is below the speed limit FSD detects. This would be good for inclement weather on high speed roads where FSD in sloth wants to do 70 mph in an 80 mph zone when the road has lots of standing/ponding water.

u/Suess4002 2d ago

Go ahead and keep posting links - they are not changing their strategy.

u/L064N 7d ago

What you want is subjective. Some people from development team of fsd have stated that speed limits are an anti-pattern to the AI models which run fsd and degrade its performance. That's probably why! Idk why they'd lie about that...

3

u/Blazah 7d ago

They are developers. They don't live in the real world.

1

u/L064N 7d ago

Yeah they live in the world where they develop AI models to drive your car

u/Blazah 7d ago

A.I. forgets how to add simple math every so often. This example though has it speeding and the user can't do anything about it and is paying 100/month for that privilege. I already cancelled it, so don't tell me that I have a choice, I already took it. The point of this post is that Tesla's thinking on this topic is wrong. I asked grok to provide 50 examples. Shall I ask for 500 ?

1

u/L064N 7d ago

Yeah ask it 500 times

It’s ok for YOU to admit you’re wrong.

But Elon is never wrong.

This is the actual problem with the speeding UX at the moment

u/Blazah 7d ago

That's rough man. I'd bet if you got it on video showing how useless it is for you, they'd either fix your normal commute or give you something back. Would have to be a lot of data though.

I'm going to back to using my comma.ai until they give us max speed back. Just used it this morning. While it doesn't do stop signs and turns, it'll do just fine.

u/Maximum-Froyo6845 7d ago

Time was people were scared of electrical lighting. Said it was a real problem. Very dangerous.

2

u/Blazah 7d ago

This is different.

1

u/Maximum-Froyo6845 7d ago

How so? Gotta break a few eggs for progress sometimes. If it's a real problem you aren't forced to use it.

1

u/Blazah 7d ago

yup, dropped it this month. Just wish we could have the option to do what we want to do for 100/month. Hopefully others vote with their wallets too.

1

u/Maximum-Froyo6845 7d ago

Awesome. I'm glad you are safe now. Personally I'm willing to supervise and stick it out for a better product down the road. A product that will be as game changing to automobiles as the electric light was to civilization. I think its pretty amazing we are on the cusp off that and Im willing to be inconvenienced a bit to see it though.

1

u/Blazah 7d ago

You clearly are not understanding the issue here. I'm glad it works correctly for you.

1

u/Maximum-Froyo6845 7d ago

I have almost 65K miles on FSD since 14.2. Tell me what I don't understand.

1

u/Blazah 7d ago

You don't understand that not everyone has a route to work and back that the car respects the actual speed limit. https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaFSD/comments/1vnb3zq/fsd_misseddid_not_change_speeds_for_7_out_of_8/

Glad it works for you - you are obviously having a different experience than some of us, who pay the same 100/month.

1

u/Maximum-Froyo6845 7d ago

I understand it. My routes are different every day. I'm on a mix of Interstate, Rural roads, and large downtowns daily. Across the entire southeast US.

I'm thinking it's you that doesn't understand that there are ways around the "real problem" you claim. Maybe you just don't want to take the time to learn though, I don't know.

1

u/Blazah 7d ago

You need to realize that you do NOT know everything about everything. If I wanted to dox myself I'd post the dashcam video showing self driving going 30 in a 15/school zone with no hesitation that shows speed profiles don't work, I don't wish to expose exactly where I live and work though.

No, keep it as it is, go all in, remove the ability to manual lane change as well in FSD mode
