Tesla Full Self-Driving (FSD) beta testers used to report quite frequently that when the autonomous mode was enabled, their vehicle often didn\u2019t stop at stop signs, which is illegal in the US and the automaker issued a recall to fix the feature prompted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The stop sign running issue also seemed to coincide with the introduction of FSD modes (Chill, Average and Assertive)<\/a>, but Tesla says it has taken steps to fix the issue.<\/p>\n

Well, now an FSD beta tester says he got a ticket precisely for the fact that his Tesla Model 3 didn\u2019t stop completely when it approached a stop sign<\/a>. He doesn\u2019t say which of the three modes he had selected at the time, just that when the vehicle was supposed to stop, it kept rolling and it did it in front of a police patrol and this resulted in him getting a ticket for not having observed the sign.<\/p>\n

The driver says he even had a chat about FSD with the officer who pulled him over, who in turn said that his cousin was also an FSD tester, yet he still received a citation not only for the stop sign violation, but also for speeding, which he says he was forced to do because the vehicle was getting onto a faster road and needed to accelerate so as to not risk being rear-ended…<\/p>\n

After watching Detroit Tesla\u2019s video twice, I\u2019m still not sure exactly what happened, but if the issue was as he seems to describe it, well, he was fully responsible for anything the vehicle did (even on its own) with him at the wheel. He notes that the speeding charge didn\u2019t stick in court, but that even with the help of a lawyer, they couldn\u2019t get the other one dropped too.<\/p>\n

Even when the issue of running stop signs on FSD was much more common, some owners reported that they experienced it all the time, while others said they had never seen it happen. Interestingly, Detroit Tesla tried to replicate the issue in the exact same sport where it happened (because he says he didn\u2019t save the footage of the actual incident), but the car came to a complete stop as it should every time.<\/p>\n

If you are part of the FSD Beta program, let us know in the comments if you are still experiencing rolling through stop signs or if the issue is no longer present<\/a> and whether or not you think it\u2019s linked to being in one of the three aforementioned driving modes – is it more likely to occur in Assertive mode?<\/p>\n
