The reason I ask, is I’ve been seeing alot of news and cases of Tesla’s self driving acting up and being a point of contention. But back in 2016-17 my ex’s uncle and aunt got a Model X when they first dropped and they “auto-drove” us like 50 miles without any noticeable issue.

Was i just gambling my life or has the tech somehow gotten worse?

    There are also many more Teslas on the road, and the “full self driving” incidents are more widely reported on since the new ownership likes to overpromise and vastly underdeliver. Other commenters have already addressed the tech side, but a few years ago, the Tesla-specific FSD was found to be active right up until a split second before some prolific collisions with emergency vehicles, leading to speculation on liability. Tesla aside, I think it’s just laziness on the part of drivers used to FSD doing the menial tasks of driving.
