Can anybody update on who Tesla fans perceive as their mortal enemy right now?
First it was big oil, then it was shortsellers, but I found those narratives sort of died out.
Who are they beefing with right now?

Watch again. Those pedestrians were in the crosswalk before the car turns. That's illegal at best , and definitely dangerous for those pedestrians. The car wasn't taking a tight right turn either.
Haha how is that illegal? The driver took over way before the car entered the crosswalk section.
For one, before the car enters the intersection, there is a pedestrian crossing. There is a pedestrian on the right side about to cross. I think it is safe to say in most countries, the car has to yield and stop.

#23Is the car turning right (after a no right turn sign) while it was supposed to be going straight according to nav?

I sincerely hope you are not in the possession of a drivers license.

#25"Almost hitting pedestrians" isn't how I'd describe what I saw in the video.
Ok, I’ll ask. How would you describe it?
"Car doesn't yield to pedestrians". For "almost hit" I would expect car to run by pedestrian in less than half a meter or for pedestrian having to react quickly to avoid car.

I suppose we'll never know if the Tesla was going to follow through on that right turn.
But if you were an observer on the corner and could not see whether it was a human or an AI was driving the car, you would almost certainly consider whatever the car did (starting the turn) while pedestrians were actively crossing dangerous.

#27Almost hitting pedestrian is a big stretch. Car had enough time to stop before he took hold. He probably just picked up the wheel because he didn't want the car going that way.

Yep, that's all true, but it was several meters away from them, far from hitting.

#30"almost hitting pedestrian"
It wasn't even close. Look at where the ped is at 12 seconds, compared to the car. It's because he stopped the turn, and straightened the vehicle that the pedestrian stopped and looked up with concern (at 13 seconds). Even if the pedestrian broke out into a full run, they wouldn't have been in any real danger.
This sort of close interplay between pedestrians and cars is very common in cities.
The concern I have is that the "eye contact" element is lost. When in doubt of another motorists intentions, we make eye contact and look for acknowledgement or an indication of intent. This doesn't exist with FSD.
Edit: Some people have pointed out the car wasn't supposed to be turning right which I missed. If that's the case, the situation and my opinion is completely different.
