Tesla enables automatic FSD activation to avoid collisions in 2026.27.5 update

📍 Drive Tesla Canada

Tesla is introducing a feature called Automatic Collision Evasion that activates supervised Full Self-Driving (FSD) to prevent crashes when the driver fails to react. Included in software update 2026.27.5 with FSD v14.3.9, it can intervene during manual driving if the driver is distracted or if FSD is unintentionally disengaged. It uses exterior and cabin cameras to monitor driver attention. Unlike automatic emergency braking, this feature lets FSD take control and continue driving after avoiding danger. It is available only on vehicles with an FSD license or subscription.

🔎 Why it matters: The Automatic Collision Evasion feature in version 2026.27.5 can enhance safety by automatically activating supervised FSD in critical situations.
📈 Upside: Allows FSD to take control and continue driving after avoiding a crash.
📉 Risk: The feature relies on accurate distraction detection and may be delayed if internal testing reveals bugs.
