Full Self-Driving (Supervised)

Under your supervision, Full Self-Driving (FSD) (Supervised) can drive your Tesla vehicle almost anywhere. It will make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects and make left and right turns. None of these advanced driver assistance features make your Tesla vehicle autonomous or replace you as the driver.

As shown in our Vehicle Safety Report¹, Tesla vehicles with FSD (Supervised) engaged experience fewer collisions than those driven without. FSD (Supervised) keeps you safer with 7x fewer major and minor collisions and 5x fewer off-highway collisions.

Note: Currently enabled features require active driver supervision and do not make the vehicle autonomous. The activation and use of these features are dependent on development and regulatory approval, which may take longer in some jurisdictions. When using FSD (Supervised), you and anyone you authorise must use additional caution and remain attentive. Do not become complacent. Specific features available to you may vary depending on your vehicle configuration, hardware, software version, region, model, vehicle trim and model year.
