Tesla's self-driving technology successfully navigates 'drunken' crooked lanes in Hollister, Calif


Tesla's self-driving technology successfully navigates 'drunk' crooked lanes in California

  • Tesla's Full Self Driving Beta was able to deftly navigate a crooked 'drunk' lane on a street in Hollister, California

Tesla's Full Self Driving Beta was able to easily navigate a crooked 'drunk' lane over the weekend in a demonstration of the company's ongoing quest to have its autonomous driving software widely adapted. 

A street in Hollister, California was mistakenly painted incorrectly by a contractor after the city had redesigned the road to add bike lanes and traffic circles - the lines were meant to be curved and ended up in a strange, zigzag pattern - according to a report from KKTV

After the 'drunk' lanes were shared online, it was only a matter of time before a Tesla owner with FSD Beta uploaded a video onto Reddit showing the driver-assisted system deftly navigating the crookedly lined street. 

The software system, which is just about to roll out version 10.13, kept a consistent speed and stayed within its own lane, even when the lanes weren't typical.

Once the street was discovered by Tesla owners, it was only a matter of time before someone decided to test out Full Self Driving Beta on the crooked road
