That road is not within the operating requirements of the Mercedes L3 which is only allowed on highways where such turns are never found.

Plus it's a U-turn situation on ancient version of FSD Beta from two years ago (see the dotted lines in the display, or the YouTube upload date for that matter) that did not support U-turns. And it's not necessarily clear it wasn't going to brake more abruptly if the driver had not intervened.

2 years ago is ancient for a feature that was supposed to be delivered in 2016?

They are trying to build something that has never been built before, and your criticism is that they are late?

Yes, since they've been selling cars claiming it would be ready for the last 7 years.

Nobody else is doing that, and I resent their beta-testing features with the rest of us there as unwilling participants.
