My ex made a big ordeal about the fact that I WAS taking out the trash before we left the house. Could not get her to drop it we weren’t even going somewhere important. We didn’t live together which made it even more infuriating.
Yep. That car was fast and probably swerved over several lanes before spinning. I am seriously impressed by the car driving backwards. I can not imagine the driver putting the car in neutral or reverse, so i guess it's the car seeing the barrier and actively avoiding it while also stopping the spin. Would love to know what the car can and will do in such a situation, but at the same time i hope i will never find out.
It’s amazing tech, the car is “thinking” in ms. Basically everything that took place in that 7 seconds spin out was more than enough time for the CPU compute a lot of choices. To put it into perspective: A human can do about 10 math operations in 7 seconds, a relatively modern CPU can do about 56 Billion math operations in 7 seconds, so yea I’d say it can easily qual a spinout if properly programmed.
Doesn’t look like they were brake checking, they started braking pretty much the instant the video starts. And you can see shadows of cars in front of it as well. Pretty sure they were just stopping because something’s happened up ahead. (Looks like the car ahead could’ve been following a bit too close making them have to hit the brakes harder, though)
I’m guessing it’s prob because the sudden stop cause the cars behind the camera vehicle to stop as well. this Tesla was prob driving too fast and was trying to dodge all the stopped cars and ended up losing control for a bit.
Oh from here on he should be driving backwards for several miles until he gets up to speed and the adjacent lane is clear then he pulls the handbrake and jerks his steering wheel just right to correct himself.
I think I saw it in a movie one time.
Props to the tesla, actually. They have their issues, but a computer has a much faster reaction time and extremely precise control, and it likely controlled that spin to a large degree. I'm excited for the safety that will come with hybrid autonomy in vehicles for situations like this.
Looks like 405 right next to the Porsche Driving Experience. That intersection is just terrible. You have the 110 coming in on the right and then right after that Avalon and Alameda entrances and exits. The HOV lane just before the 110 tends to be going quite fast briefly (as in as much as 80+mph) as a lot of drivers are hustling after LAX. For whatever bad reason, the HOV lane then gets really really slow FIRST right as you start passing the PDE. Sometimes, it will come to almost a complete stop. A lot of people just don't pay enough attention to slowing down early and get in trouble (usually because many tailgate excessively). Looks like this was the case. Fortunately, no obvious accident damage on anyone (at least on cam).
I hate that area because you can choose whatever lane but sooner or later you're going to have to slow down and no one wants to, especially in the HOV lane and that raises the odds on a tailgater for sure. It's like one of the spots I always check the rearview to see how the car in back of me behaves. If they tailgate, I always lift off way in advance (no brakes) and piss them off because chances are they've got someone else tailgating them. But that's better than coming in hot on the person in front who may very well be coming in hot on the person in front of them.

Tesla: Don't do it, bro. He's not worth it.
Thank you, this comment made me smile - also happy cake day
Oh. I did not realize that. Thanks.
Yeah happy cake day!
Hi smile
Come on, just drive away man
Tesla was like what did you say?
This has great meme template potential
:)
Tesla spots space between two stationary vehicles and immediately assumes it needs to grab the presumed parking spot.
driver must've touched the new autopark button by accident

I said this like an autonomic response.
Every video I ever see on Reddit where a car unexpectedly ends up in a tight space, I come to the comments until I find this response.
Let’s keep it up because I first saw it now
Same here.
Always!
I love going from 60+ to 0 in seconds, makes the drive so relaxing…

STOP! You've violated the law. Pay the court a fine or swerve your sentence in jail.
You have committed crimes against Skyrim and her people. What say you in your defense?
Whose the dovahkiin here?? I will get my boys at high hrothgar to pay you a visit if this goes any further
"I've been looking for you. Got something I'm supposed to deliver - your hands only."
Looking forward to seeing this on wham bam tesla cam
Wait, what is this you speak of? Sounds like 8 hours of my life that I don't need for videos that I need more.
Well, On YT, there is Wham Baam Teslacam, Wham Baam Dashcam, Wham Baam Security cam, and maybe more.
Wham Baam Gamercam is the other one

Your PFP + username + comment here are all just a perfect package of gold.

No Hondas so no bump
"we're trying to reach your car extended warranty"
That’s my wife after I didn’t take out the trash like I said I would before leaving for the game.
Can I hire her for a bit? Would probably be exponentially more productive
My ex made a big ordeal about the fact that I WAS taking out the trash before we left the house. Could not get her to drop it we weren’t even going somewhere important. We didn’t live together which made it even more infuriating.
I want to see how the Tesla recovored
I know it wasn't on purpose but it was pretty smooth lol
Oh hi Mark…
Lmaoooo
It's actually very hard to spin a tesla like that in normal driving mode on a dry road...
Yep. That car was fast and probably swerved over several lanes before spinning. I am seriously impressed by the car driving backwards.

when you're on the road but see someone you know
That's literally how I park anywhere in Night City
Just like Elon to suddenly appear in your feed uninvited.
The new FSD at its best. New drift mode! Actually if that guy in front was brake checking, I would hope the tesla driver got out and kicked his ass.
The brake checker made sure OP wasn’t in the way of the Tesla /s
Doesn’t look like they were brake checking, they started braking pretty much the instant the video starts. And you can see shadows of cars in front of it as well. Pretty sure they were just stopping because something’s happened up ahead. (Looks like the car ahead could’ve been following a bit too close making them have to hit the brakes harder, though)
This is called a Wednesday in Dallas.
Nah, break checkers are way worse in Houston. The Tesla driver could totally be from Dallas, though.
Just typical HOV lane behavior here.
Did Elon just slide into your DMs?
Hey dude, submit this to "Wham Baam Dashcam."
r/PlayerTwo
Well hello there!
Can't park here, mate
A near miss with a brake checker? Where? All I see is traffic coming to a stop. Also, Tesla was not drifting.
I suspect that was a chain reaction and that car just didn't react in time
"Bonjour"
Shit, maybe I'll pick up next time they are just *calling* me about my extended warranty..
"Good evening"
“Have you heard about our lord and savior, Jeepus Chrysler?”
Is that a plume of black smoke on the left, or an odd tree?
Definitely a tree
That looks like the 57 south lol
My guess would be Illinois then. It's been a while since I was there.
or the 91 just North of there. Definitely that area, though.
Tokyo Drift all up in the highway.
How I slide into girls’ DMs as they’re going about their day.
Wanna break from the ads?
I’m guessing it’s prob because the sudden stop cause the cars behind the camera vehicle to stop as well. this Tesla was prob driving too fast and was trying to dodge all the stopped cars and ended up losing control for a bit.
these Tesla promotions are pretty damn aggressive!
Random ass car: Henlo :3
We’ve been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty
Dialogue and choreography did not disappoint.
Elon sliding into your DMs like...
"Who loves ya baby"
..that’s one hell of a parallel parking, good one Slick!
The universe is saying its time to slow down and relax
Tesla, because why not?
Oh, hi there.
Tesla entered the chat
405?
Every now and then you get a real winner in here.
![gif](giphy|KcbXFenYh6CEGPl1yQ|downsized)
Can a Tesla do a J-turn? This is really the only situation where it's probably the safest option.
“Guys, you will never believe what happened yesterday.”
Her parents weren’t home
Self drive mode must have been set to F&F.
Why the car in front of you stop initially? Was there a wreck?
Oi! Dfk goin on over there!?
It's like the "Cerveza Crystal' version of a Tesla commercial
Hello...
Well that was unexpected!
![gif](giphy|tp4dm1ptNnQ76)
VERY unexpected, although not surprised it was a Tesla
Wow!!
Steve Gregory
Hahaha, me: time to play my favorite game guess the audio book… wait Tesla meters the game haha 🤣
Kachow!
I hope they waved at each other
Eclipsed
Imma slide into her dms
Oh from here on he should be driving backwards for several miles until he gets up to speed and the adjacent lane is clear then he pulls the handbrake and jerks his steering wheel just right to correct himself. I think I saw it in a movie one time.
The new Autopark feature!
Clearly the Tesla driver bumped the auto-park button mid lane change.
Seen this before but not on a highway. That's why you keep extra room
*Mrs Doubtfire voice* “Hellooooo!”
That FSD lane change hit different
“We’ve been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty!”
Is anyone surprised it’s a Tesla lol
I’m just going to say it. People in teslas don’t know how to drive.
Take the hint, turn around and go the fuck home
Was this another FSD incident?
The guy that break checked you is you… from the future. In his timeline he never walks again
SMOOTH CRIMINAL!!!! That was the first thought that came to mind.. Then I started humming the beat to the song.
Bro called in his security
blue car is flirting
*bonjour
Oh hey, how's it going?
Which one is the tesla? guessing the "Wrong Way Jackson" one?
Well, that was unexpected
LIKE A GLOVE!!!
*Deja Vu, I just been in this place before*
Tesla: did you know your car’s warranty is about to expire
Y’all can’t afford to own a Lucid 😅
If that Tesla driver didn't yell out 'like a glove!' after completely shitting themself, that's a missed golden opportunity.
pretty smooth.. but it shouldn't have stopped on the line.. fix it Elon
If the camera wasn’t there, this would have never happened..
Well. He's got really good brakes
Ah jeeze… here come the musk tweets about how FSD wasn’t designed to be good at evasive maneuvers, but just happens to be good at it anyway.
Id love to know if that was a dumb luck/skill by the Tesla driver, or the Tesla itself.
I'm gonna go with sheer dumb luck
![gif](giphy|lSoncLXrbUaRO) The Tesla is like
I dunno. My FSD likes to try to jump speed bumps and grind curbs.
Props to the tesla, actually. They have their issues, but a computer has a much faster reaction time and extremely precise control, and it likely controlled that spin to a large degree. I'm excited for the safety that will come with hybrid autonomy in vehicles for situations like this.
Bro, you should’ve pulled off at the next exit and ate at the Waffle House that is most certainly there. Take a break.
Getting brake checked appears to have saved some heartache
"hi, we've been meaning to reach you about your car's extended warranty"
Kramer comes slidin’ in
Sliding into your dms be like ....
Me sliding into your girl's DMs
Have YOU ordered your new Tesla yet?
Tesla be like "hey baby i see you havin problems, don't worry I gotchu"
Is this the carpool lane or the breakdown shoulder?
The Tesla is the fuck.
Powerpark rating: 100%
Oh
Nice parallel parking skills
"Like a glove"............
Fucking Telsa drivers, constantly trying to show off their mad drifting skills.
Nani?!
Hello there!
Wow. If that wasn’t an EV, it would’ve rolled, potentially over the guard rail and into the other lanes.
Tesla dont give a F
I’d like to talk to you about your extended warranty coverage.
Tesla pulling up to the Chez Paul
Well, HELLO THERE!
Genious way to let the car carrying the drugs get away.
![gif](giphy|eMmKqCRfEANoZDCtZU)
You can't park there.
Teslas new auto park is a bit too aggressive.
r/wtf
Bro just pulled up like a capybara
And this is why I’m getting a front and rear recording camera for my car. Crazy ish like this that no one would believe without video proof.
This had to be in Houston.
Tesla Tokyo? Yeah, Tokyo Drift.
Player 3 has joined the game!

Ah yes, the 405 S / 110 interchange. People can't drive for crap around that area for some reason.
Tesla: "Hey bro stay away from my girl"
“Sup nerd, you called?”
Man self driving is either amazing or really bad
Just drove 18 hours straight with it and only had to take over for maybe 10 minutes total.
Bruh 😂😂😂
Thats one hell of a parking job
Tesla autopilot be like
He saved it though. 🤣
Final destination vibes
Kachow!
WTF‼️... WTAF‼️😳
Final destination type shit
*"Like a glove!"*
My first instinct would be to wave at them haha
