FSD user says treating it as a copilot improved their experience
Unconfirmed: an FSD user posted on Reddit that they changed how they use the system. Instead of treating it as a chauffeur, they now consider it a copilot or assistant. They explain that they used to let it drive and, frustrated by decisions they would not have made, often took over. Now they keep control while FSD handles the more routine parts of driving. As an example, they say they switch between Standard and Hurry modes. They claim their "streak" increased significantly, without specifying which metric this refers to.…
- User says they often took over from FSD out of frustration
- Now uses FSD as an assistant, switching between Standard and Hurry modes
🔎 Why it matters: There is no official Tesla confirmation: this is a Reddit user's account of how they use FSD, including the Standard and Hurry modes, with no verifiable data.
📈 Upside: According to the user, treating FSD as an assistant takes the burden off routine driving tasks and reduces frustration-driven takeovers.
📉 Risk: As an individual experience without data, it does not allow generalizing how FSD behaves for other drivers or in other situations.
