What was claimed
Tesla FSD is genuinely the biggest improvement in quality of life I've ever experienced and has opened massive potential for my family by solving kids' shuttling
Our verdict
Needs cautionFSD can assist with driving, but it is still a Level 2 system that requires a fully attentive driver at all times. It does not solve childcare transportation by itself, and sources note complacency and safety concerns. While FSD has improved, the safety picture is contested. NHTSA has multiple active investigations into FSD. Independent safety researchers question Tesla's safety claims, and the system frequently requires driver intervention.
