If a fellow passenger's safety concern is enough to stop you from enabling it, would you consider a 3rd parties request:
As a pedestrian, cyclist and driver I ask that you never engage your autopilot on a public street which I may be crossing, riding or driving on as I have concerns about its safety. I am also sure most other people doing the same would agree. Thank you.
of course FSD does crazy shit right now; it's beta and it's learning! That's why you agree to not become complacent and have full control over steering at all times.
in my experience, it works well 95% of the time, but the 5% unpredictability factor is way too high, which is why I don't use it with passengers in the car unless asked to do so. more specifically, I might manually maneuver the car less than 2 miles out of a 20 mile trip with FSD beta enabled, which is an improvement over the 5 miles I would manually maneuver with FSD stable. but it's getting better, and it's definitely better than anything else you can use on public roads, so I'm sticking with it.
