Might make sense, in California's driver handbook you're required to pull into the bike lane to make a turn if the bike lane is there. Part of that programming should have already existed given where Teslas were made.

This is a lane only for bikes, with no car lane going the same direction. It's like turning onto train tracks (and if you keep going down it, you might well be stuck).

No, as can be clearly seen from the video, it is doing a right turn onto a road where the only lane is a full-size lane with a sign indicating that cars are not allowed to use that road in that direction.

I don't speak the language but I wonder why the video doesn't show it actually entering the lane...

It does in the last 2 to 3 seconds. You can see the Tesla driving into it as the video ends. It is a weird spot to end the video.

Makes sense to use software modeled on California laws in software made for Denmark's laws for sure.

I stand corrected. It doesn't get very far but it turns into it. I didn't notice it's the same lane because after the cut back to approval vid signs were conveniently obscured and because it's bike-only road not just an extra lane. They better pull the permit after this if they are serious about bicyclists in that country.

So now I am in a beta test as a vehicle dummy without a chance to opt out. My model Y can’t keep lanes what my entry level Škoda does perfectly fine. My model Y slams on the brakes occasionally when I try cruise control feature on empty highway. I reported this defect as a case for warranty, but according Tesla this is fine functionality.

Do you mean FSD or Autosteer (or Autopilot or whatever it's called now). I think Tesla left Autosteer purposefully crappy. FSD is excellent at keeping the lane, way better than what your Škoda can do.

You can opt out by selling it. I suppose if you think it's enough of an issue you could do us all a favor and just have it crushed.

If there is a sign which explicitly bans cars from entering it is still illegal (I assume; I never took the drivers license in California). In the video you can clearly see the street has a sign that says no cars and no motorcycles. The Tesla presumably saw that sign and either doesn’t recognize it (unlikely) or has a software telling the car to ignore it (more likely).

Autosteer is disabled on all new vehicles too, part of forcing people to buy FSD.

At first I thought Tesla AI is stupid, trying to kill humans here. Then I realised: skynet has begun ... it does not care about humans.

Skynet has indeed begun. There was a post recently about the very first time completely independent non-humans chose to kill humans (Russians) in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
