This guy produces a lot of (long) videos about how the Tesla (beta) full self-driving performs. This, however, is a significant one.
The NHTSA made a newsworthy condemnation of Tesla's dangerous performance like rolling stops at red lights, or turning right from a left turning lane, that mandated a massive recall.
However, the recall is a non-issue since the correction is an over-the-air update. Nonetheless, this negative announcement dropped the stock price sharply 6%.
However, in the latest update (which I haven't received yet) he has some high praise for the "smoothness" of this latest iteration in software improvement, as follows.
8:25 the path planner is a lot smoother
9:53 did a really nice job of planning a path through that intersection
11:30 dramatic improvement ... hugging the inside of the turn
13:14 the steering wheel inputs were smooth and the acceleration and braking were smooth - there just seemed to be an extra layer of polish on top
13:45 a focus on the overall smoothness and feel
15:06 actually pretty complex behavior
16:27 goes to the outside and inside of the turns [much like a human would]
18:06 it's actually starting to get an idea of traffic flow, which in turn makes it more confident
23:18 how smooth the steering is throughout this maneuver, it's almost like it did these 3 lane chances as one single maneuver
