Tesla TAD/FSD already in use in Finland [video]. Snowy roads, intelligent passing with a bus, but there are also mistakes

Shortly after the Tesla TAD/FSD Supervised was approved for use in Finland, the first videos showing the system’s capabilities on snowy roads appeared. The electronics drive perfectly, just like a careful and composed driver. It can see the lanes despite the snow cover, isn’t disturbed by oncoming headlights, and also understands that it needs to stop on a narrow road to let a bus pass.

First, the video. It’s calm and normal — and perhaps that’s exactly what makes it most impressive:

The car draws lines on the screen indicating lanes and shoulders, although the recorder’s camera only sees them briefly or not at all. It’s possible that the software “invents” the lines based on the car’s parameters, the road surface (the road class determines the width of lanes or shoulders), and adjusts them to match the occasionally visible paint spots on the asphalt (Illustration 1). But using a wider section of the road to let a bus pass is already at the higher level of driving skill (Illustration 2):

Tesla TAD/FSD adjusts the speed to traffic limits and smoothly passes through snowy roundabouts. It also makes mistakes sometimes. It can stop at a right turn without traffic signals if the light is red straight ahead. In tight spaces, it reverses ten times even though there’s a wide road behind that would allow for a relatively easy reverse and avoidance of the obstacle at once. In a parking lot, it chooses the exit route in the wrong direction, toward a wall (video number 2):

The software swerves to the side as soon as it detects a privileged vehicle in the distance. It realizes that the orange flashing lights don’t indicate a privileged vehicle, though in this exact situation we would probably pull back slightly to help the plow maneuver (Video No. 3).
