I get asked all the time by non-Tesla drivers: “Isn’t FSD dangerous?” “Aren’t you scared letting it drive instead of you?” “How can you even trust it?” These questions always make me smile. Every day I drive past people texting, eating, doing makeup, or staring at their phones, and nobody bats an eye. But the moment a Tesla uses cameras to constantly scan the road, monitor driver attentiveness, read speed limits, track traffic, and watch for pedestrians, cyclists, and other vehicles, that’s what scares people? Here’s the reality: A traditional car is only as safe as the human behind the wheel. Tired, distracted, angry, or checking a notification? Good luck. Tesla FSD never gets sleepy. It never gets distracted. It doesn’t have bad days. After thousands of miles on Full Self-Driving, the biggest surprise isn’t what the software gets wrong. It’s how many terrifying human mistakes you notice all around you. Sitting in traffic, the strangest part isn’t that your car is driving itself. It’s watching everyone else still trying to do it manually. So let’s be real: What’s actually safer? A distracted human driver, or a supervised Tesla FSD?
