This drive was done with a 2022 Model Y Performance that has ultrasonics sensors, but no radar, and the FSD profile is set to "Average", and Auto Speed enabled. You can increase the playback speed, or just hit the bookmarks below for what I felt were relevant points.
Overall 12.4.3 is a better release, and the "hands free" driving aspect makes using it significantly more enjoyable. Still some rough edges that need to be smoothed out.
00:00 - Intro
01:14 - Previously the car would slow for these double greens, now it does not.
01:54 - New traffic lights, acts as if they've always been there
03:30 - FSD sees a State Road 39 sign as a 30mph sign and acts accordingly.
07:05 - _Perfect_ handling of dedicated turn lane, followed by an aborted lane change attempt. Had it changed lanes as well, this entire sequence would have been perfectly done.
08:50 - Intervention - Dedicated U-turn lane. It misses several opportunities to turn on a yellow, despite _optimal_ conditions. When light turned green it was sluggish to turn, requiring me to hold down accelerator
13:22 - Gets into left lane for a right turn in .3mi. It waits until last traffic light before turn to be in correct lane.
16:52 - False start at a stop sign. Seems to occur when opposing traffic starts.
17:19 - Fails to turn right on red. (~25 seconds to get green light)
20:44 - Slow to turn left at raised intersection with construction
21:50 - Audible alert - There's a rattle in the back I was trying to identify
22:52 - Slow to do left elbow turn
23:34 - Put hands on wheel because of map manipulation time, followed by an audible alert. I'd prefer more time to interact with the map before it alerts.
25:35 - Intervention - Car gets stuck at red light as it refuses to turn right on red and is not on sensor pad to change light color. End up having to hit accelerator to make it go forward. (~2 minutes before intervening. Never got green light)
30:14 - Intervention - FSD fails to see green turn light, which it has in the past. Looks like interference from sunlight.
31:30 - Wishbone to one way traffic, works good.
32:45 - Disengagement - I was trying to go to a roundabout, however, the navigation has me stopping in the middle of traffic instead. I take control and go where I want to go.
34:50 - Stop sign which has given issues in the past works just fine.
35:49 - FSD biases to right of lane to avoid curbing on the left a couple times.
38:00 - Begin narrow road driving
38:35 - Slow to clear intersection. If you frame by frame the car that passes in front of me, you can see they were not pleased with how far my vehicle nose was sticking out, though in looking at it in post, the distances look quite acceptable.
39:10 - *Emergency Disengagement* - Due to errant wildlife. Three unleashed dogs on the left side of the road. As I approach the dogs, one of the three dogs darts out towards my car, forcing me to disengage and evade them. You can sort of see the gray blobs on the screen indicate where the dogs went. I waited till I could confirm all three dogs were behind me before proceeding. I'm honestly not sure how FSD will handle this, as I believe the interaction was occurring in the camera's blind spots. FSD is semi at fault, however, the dogs should not have been there to start with.
40:39 - Autopark at a park while I verbally describe what happened with the dog above, and take a breather.
44:17 - Disengagement - FSD attempts a sharp, right, elbow turn, it stops. It _feels_ like the car knows it has to put itself in reverse to adjust and keep going, but honestly, it stopped before putting me into the ditch, which is a huge improvement over the previous versions.
49:57 - _Perfectly_ handled railroad crossing
50:33 - Intervention - FSD has to turn left, however, it pulls the nose out a scooch too far and a vehicle coming from the right that wants to turn into the oncoming lane of travel adjacent to me stops to let me go ahead of them. I feel they had room to go, but as they were trying to be polite, I held the accelerator down to encourage it to go.
55:17 - Double left turn lane. Still exhibits the same issues that 12.3.6 did, which it is tries to go into the RaceTrac portion of the turn lane, aborts, and goes into the second half. When there's traffic, it goes straight for the RaceTrac half and I have to go around it manually.
56:50 - End/Outro - When you reach the end of a drive, the car should disengage and give you the options on where to park, not just keep going.
As a whole, v12.4.3 has improvements, and some minor regressions, notable the red lights of the Sydney and Airport Rd intersection. Feels much more polished, and the camera based hands-free driving is awesome.
Thanks for watching.
