Tesla FSD aces aggressive driving tests on closed track
Out of Spec Reviews and Dirty Tesla push Tesla FSD on a closed course with aggressive maneuvers. It avoids contact, favors space, and stays composed in 14.1.7.

On a closed test course, the creators of Out of Spec Reviews and Dirty Tesla put Tesla’s FSD through a string of unconventional trials. The goal was to see how the system handles behavior that mimics aggressive driving: abrupt cut-ins, attempted side contact, and unexpected maneuvers in close proximity. A Model 3 running FSD not only avoided potential impacts with assurance, it also delivered responses that could surpass those of an average driver.In one sequence, after being overtaken, the car widened the gap on its own; later it even chose to turn around rather than keep traveling alongside the aggressive driver. When approaching head-on, FSD began to slow well before the cars drew near, and when another vehicle pulled out from the shoulder, it came to a smooth, almost jerk-free stop. That kind of composure is something people behind the wheel often struggle to maintain when provoked.If the Tesla had to get out of the way, the system preferred to roll onto grass instead of risking a collision. The trials suggest the algorithms can read a threat and opt for the safer path even in unfamiliar scenarios. The avoidance logic comes across as conservatively tuned in a good way, prioritizing space over bravado.The tests were conducted on FSD Supervised 14.1.7. Even with clear progress, the technology remains contentious: in the United States it is under investigation, while EU regulators still do not allow it on public roads.
