Tesla is using data from the radar to annotate the images from the cameras with distance before running it through the ML training, but for driving it is using a combination of all (stereo vision, ML and radar) to produce the final number.

The human neural network is of course fine tuned to this and my father who is blind on one eye will actually move his head sideways a bit to judge distance when he is driving :)

Yah. Waymo is doing the same with the lidar, which provides both higher accuracy and higher resolution "ground truth" distance data. And yes, everyone uses sensor fusion and filtering, not just "ML".
