Tesla FSD a Brussel·les: prova real entre tramvies, bicicletes i cruïlles

What was that? It was very close. Wow, it's taking those little gaps so quickly and assertively. The traffic lights now are even more out of you. Okay, this is kind of super interesting. Watch out because there is some removal company, there is some lift. That's going to be very tight. Might be scratchy. We're circling the headquarter something you are never as the guys. What a time to be alive. decide whether your test-look and drive itself all work in one city. And now that FSD is finally legal there too, I just had to see it for myself. So I went straight to the source. On day one, I did what no one should do. Climb into a self-driving car with a complete stranger from the internet. But it turns out trust goes both ways. On day two, he let me take the wheel. Or should I say, let the wheel take me? are my first impressions of FSD in the capital of Europe. This is my fourth country where I'll be trying FSD. I've already tried it in the US. I've already tried it in the Czech Republic. A little bit unoffersial. Yeah, yeah, I see. And then of course Amsterdam. And this is my fourth country Belgium Brussels. Thank you so much Dominic for this opportunity. And let's, let's ride. Now the fun part starts, I forgot to say, on the... A little bit of censorship.

But yeah, you can... Okay, let's see. What's he going back? So that's actually fun. Oh yeah, fully legal and Brussels by the way. Of course. That's quite amazing. I was the happiest man when I heard that this is actually rolling out. And we can enjoy it just like that. It's changing massively the way I'm community. Wow. It's always magical experiencing it. Especially the car was there and it's taking our parking spot. It was really nicely assertive. The smoothness is there as always. And the gentleness as you see. Yes. The pedestrians always the kings and the queens. And your mouth is the bikers, the same but you know that very well from your videos from Amsterdam already. I'm actually really curious about how different it's going to be here from Amsterdam. Looking forward to your feedback on that. The weather is great, so we don't have any rainy conditions that could potentially mess it out. Super nice and sunny. And that was an interesting case. So the thing is that in Brussels and in Belgium you have this very particular rule, I don't know, is it the same in Czech Republic or not? But when you don't have any of the signs, you need to cause from the right they have the right of way. I've not this a few times. The Tesla can, you know, it's very cautious normally, but sometimes it can be very assertive. as you saw, we had the car approaching quite close by at some point to our this one in particular, and it's trying to stop here because we had the point because of the way we can let it park, you know, for a second just to see if the parking works well, which is not always a given, no? It's not supposed to be there yet, right? The parking, like set of features the same they have in the US. I still have the way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think the parking is the next thing they're kind of working on. So, as you can see, parking not yet quite there, but it's not supposed to be anyway.

So, actually standing not too bad, I don't know if you're going to. Yeah, we're over the line just to line the over the line. So, yeah, let's try and see, the... It's supposed to be in pieces. Whoa, that was very close. Oh my god, just take a look at the screen guys. We wind that one, God. Oh, watch out if there are any cars on the right is right hand rule. I have to say sometimes I'm slightly stressed about it But that's like the only thing I think in the FSD that is stressing me out Especially that the people are really here Very used to this role and very popular pushy about Execising the right of way. I heard about it and we have it in the Czech Republic as well But I've read that it's super aggressive in here. Like even if you have like a major road and then just this small tiny road connecting from the right you have to be super careful. In the Czech Republic most times you have this like yellow diamond sign that gives you the right of way on the priority road. So like but where it isn't there then you have a right of way from the right. So here you see the barrel on the head contours of the commission like the L.A.U. flags on the... This is iconic in the wind. We're circling the headquarter of the EUNFSD guys. Exactly. That's amazing. That's a sign. What a time to be alive indeed. You must be so happy about having FSD already. No, it's... You know, for me, I'm extremely happy that I can use it on a daily basis. basis is you I'm quite passionate okay let's let's it's trying to stop here so that's actually quite interesting that we are stopping on the sidewalk

okay we'll have to but look at the high scores that we're getting you're very attentive I'm super attentive it seems and we have a little test that behind us and the bike in front of us and look how cautious we are even though the bike is on the street, not on the bike lane, where it's in the image. And it dropped like 10 centimeters from the curb down like proper model-ly off-road experience. So I am extremely happy. So they should give you the right of way. Now, because you're coming from the right, or do they have a good question? I haven't paid attention to the signs. Normally, I think it could be taken to the... Well, let's see what the FSD does. We're sort of in the middle of the bike. It's not ideal. We should probably keep that open. As you see the guy on the left, this one gives us a little bit of space still, but when you will start moving when the other cars will move, I think. Take a decision for us. But coming back to your question, yeah, very happy to have FSD in Belgium. We are actually quite lucky because we have two countries combined so we can actually drive between the two across the border have like two countries together. But you know, I'm not from here. So for me, a really important that I can go to my home country to Poland where I come from as well. And for this I need another two countries on the way to approve it, so Germany Poland quite big countries as you see we exercise with quite nicely. Very nice. They let us in and FSD took the opportunity. So, yeah, very cool. Having it in all Europe is the ultimate goal, so we can all do it without borders like we do on a regular basis when we travel, you know, with our passports, without things like that. Why not having this full FSD as well? That would be fantastic. Indeed. And FSD just let a guy in front of us cut in our lane.

Yeah, very polite. And now we're sitting in proper Brussels rush hour traffic. You were worried about not having enough traffic and here we are. I'm very happy. Let's see, this one is actually taking the spot and switching to the right from the left lane, congratulations. But we gently and kindly let the people through, if they were bikes coming, we would let them through. So you want to find a more gentle driver than I first seen in this area, I guess. Maybe anywhere. Yeah. Could be. Could be. If a Tesla driving itself through Brussels makes you smile like a little kid on Christmas Eve subscribe. It's always so polite with the pedestrians, but it's already starting to go. Yeah, that's really nice. It doesn't have this hesitation, it doesn't necessarily wait until they're completely off. It slowly stands accelerating already by that time, which makes the difference now, because otherwise, should we have any cars behind us that would be some homes or things like wow, it's taking those little gaps so quickly and assertively, I would have gone much slower through those gaps. I can tell you that. With the model-wise, it's not the smallest car in the world. it isn't. It isn't. So yeah, I'm quite satisfied with it and I... That was... That was amazing. And I keep on using it. It was quite a lot in the city. Of course, predominantly when I was thinking about it, I think for me, a major, very long trips like you know, going a thousand kilometers obviously with the supercharging stops in between, where the ultimate goal so that you can rest, relax, and the city driving, I wasn't thinking that this will be such a game changer. But having a system that actually has all this camera as an ice instead of your pair of

ice, it has like 8 or 10 ice around the car and making the journey safer for you. It just makes no sense to just rely on your senses. It's much more secure to have this one. I always love people thinking FSD with little way. It's like, sure buddy. But it happens to me quite a lot. It happens to me quite a lot. Although with the gentleness, I've been honked once or twice as well. That's the price to pay. Come on, we want to come to Unpart here, like, into us, almost like hitting you twice now. So here you have the commission building on the right. The left is the council building. This is where your prime minister, all the president, I'm not sure if it's representing I think they're so ancient at the nature side. It's happening there. I think they're both lying in there. We cannot go left like the navigation suggests. So yeah, this is still from behind every construction. So I'm afraid we're gonna be stuck in a traffic for a moment. So FSD is going to reroute. It's not gonna take like the circle that has been done in the gations. So we'll have to see how they will find an alternative way for us. I'm also pretty tight in here. Yeah. It's not the widest. I see you nicely lit the biker. Oh, it's a cool using past that van. Also, like, okay, regard it. Yeah, regarding pedestrians and other vulnerable road users, FSD is always giving them tons of space, but with cars, it just isn't afraid to go, okay, this was very well handled as well. And we had actually the right way. The right way.

Yeah, yeah, the right way. That's true. Even though, I mean, it analyzes the situations. And if we can pose a risk, somebody who is going against the rules, okay, fine, we can let you go. It's all right. Interesting situation. of cars around us and we are just going because we are at the first once there and that's where not moving so I think we'll down I would have done it exactly the same maybe even even as good even though the guy coming from the right was also I ready to go or well he wasn't because he was so blind I think he stopped I think he stopped and I think he didn't stop probably that the system would have behaved differently It's interesting that FSD analyzes any hesitation coming from from all any other traffic users it can actually fill in the gap cautiously without taking any risks. Someone almost fell off their bicycle. That would be also an interesting edge case. Okay we have a nice couple on the bikes taking all the lights. Yeah, let's see if the car will do anything about it. Yeah. They have a dedicated lane. They could be following. Yeah. Probably if I press the accelerator, it might have overtake them. You know the rules. I know the rules. No press. No press. The fans. The same. The same. Unless you press it.

But yeah, we're not. We're not. We're really relaxed. It's a nice Tuesday afternoon. So far you didn't have to press. No. It doesn't get you to anything. Yeah, you don't have to do anything. It's just totally unemployed when it comes. It's so far. Okay, it's interesting how it's like slow. All right. Because it anticipated this guy doing some kind of move even before I did. I was like, why was it slowing down? Yeah. And it was like, well, this dude is about to... The anticipation rate of the system is really one of the things that surprises me from time to time. I was just about to call it out for Phantom Breaking and then I, like, understood why it did that. Alright, day two, Dominic Hans his test allowed to a stranger from the internet. In a city I've never driven before, sensible man. And I'm not a great driver, but I trust FSD enough to try. Let's see if that is a good idea. Let's walk side it. Super excited. How have to like switch into supervisor mode? Yeah, but I already did it. With how care? It really sets you into your position. Okay, that will be, that's not me. But you can read just on the go if you can, yeah, yeah, you can play around. That's where we'll play around while trying to supervise. Not ideal, but yeah, we should have saved a year profile.

Hey, that is a model I standard. Okay, still having my hands like close to the wheel. That's fine, that's fine. So normally on around about you don't, like the guys on the right don't have right of the way, right? Yeah, on the roundabout it should be your, it should be your priority, but okay. Sometimes in Brussels there's a question, what is around about what is in? Because if it doesn't show, I think on the sign that it's around about they might see it as a crossing. people get confused all that time and then it's a little bit who we're gonna take Siddol who is first. You can always see me with the hand like this one little bit of steering wheel. It's a lot of flower position. Yes it's like meditation. It can slow your meditation. It's super relaxing in and stop and go traffic. Yeah. Yeah, that the fact that you don't have to press the pull all the time and pay attention and be worried that you're gonna hit someone in front of you. And you can just really pay attention to your surroundings. And like the traffic in front of you is taken care of by the car completely, which is fun. I can look in the mirrors if someone is coming, or what's happening around. And I don't have to constantly play this catch up with it. No, this is one of my favorite things. And things that didn't work also, and that's not just thing because we have a police car coming up, but we didn't have to make way for it.

But I wonder if we were standing there a little bit in the form if the car would do it. For the pull over a little bit. So it's a lightest pass. Sledding the pedestrians go as always. Maybe we're gonna be lucky again with some. And if you think I need to do anything at any time, just let me know because obviously I'm not sure. Yeah, I'll be right back. I'll be right back. I'll be right back. I think if necessary, but as you could see from our experience so far, we didn't really need it. A random guy from ex just flew to your city and you let him be behind the wheel of your car. No, no, no, you've done quite a lot of YouTube. Yeah, that convinced you to let him be behind the wheel. Another must have understood. Indeed. There's quite a lot of them. I think it also might come. This one is the new one. There's quite a lot still when I think the flounder plummish government was giving this extra money for you to purchase an electric car. This has ended in November, yeah. Who uses super-type? You're your. But we're squeezing in. That's why I chose this round of all as well. Sometimes it also has pedestrians here. And when I was coming here on my way, there were some, and yeah, that's the tricky one.

Do we have the right away? Uh-huh. We do it. We follow. Yeah. We follow the model-wise standard. One to the other problem. So let's see. No trams on the left. Yeah, luckily. Yeah. Hello. Always polite. And the tram is coming from behind. And it's actually a seat. We are actually going on the tram tracks because there is a car standing on the right hand side. We are just following the traffic, a little bit cautious, maybe even too much for my leg in. But, interesting, we will follow the other model, why? To the normal regular route, yes. And he has driven over the like barrier, but we have completely avoided it. So that was nice. Well measured, that was the better than human driver over there. It seems so. And we have the tram behind now. That's so cool. There's another, there are about incoming. Okay, some bikers on the behind us. So that's fine. And yeah, let's see how this roundabout goes on. I'm not relaxed yet, I can tell.

Okay. I can tell. It takes some time. It takes some time. Well, once it lands, you know, in checker public, let's hope. So yeah. And later, and you'll... And of course, on my own. daily on your own to you know it's just gonna come like I let my dad sit in the chair the tram is coming and also on the car and people saw this is gonna be pretty interesting because the tram is coming you let me know what to do yeah the guys were going right I was driving you through I'm letting you through the people are just trying towards It's me who worries, no worries, let the people pass. So we're getting honked at, because we're being too polite. That's an early honk, that's an early honk. Today, it's fine, it's fine. I think it wasn't making way, I mean, the far worst things. People stopping in the middle of the road, just, you know. We're not taking a peek or something. Yeah, this is Brussels people, relax. OK. Pretty close. Nice. See, we don't see much on the right. Yeah, we go. Okay, this scooter doesn't really pay attention. So we were quite cautious. I've just stopped the brakes a little bit for that. Yep. Whew. I'm going nervous. Around here.

Sorry, it tells a hard start for you. I'm used to this. Yeah. I'm used to hard start from the Amsterdam country side when... Okay. Are we okay? We should be going straight here. Yeah. And then to the left. This guy should have let us go, right? Because normally yes, I think normally yes, that's about it. Yeah. This is all, it didn't feel awkward to be very, almost. And now I'm trusting it with the tight spacing here. Okay, so this is where you have the hotel hotel place. Oh, nice, some bikers going one way and you look at it. And I'm really much space for both bikes, but I think. Managed to squeeze in. And very smoothly. Very smooth. No Brexit. There's enough space on the right so I'll continue doing it fine. And obviously the bike are in front of me. No idea. I can't uphill a notch, much power, not a big breakfast. So it's gonna take a moment. Whereas as you go down as you see quite confidently with high speed moon. I'm curious what it's gonna do because it says traffic like maybe out of view. It saw the green on the list and now it's really going to try to. That's the difference that we have in Europe and comparison to the US because they have the lines behind the crossing.

Whereas in Europe we have them in front and the cameras that you have here in front. My note always be able to capture everything so well. And those were pretty like on the edges. I think, yeah, yeah. So I think here the fact that it shows such a message to the supervisor, It's actually it's a nice safety. It might be the same here because the traffic lights now are even more out of view. Did it? It was green. Yes, it was green. I wasn't even sure. I thought it just started driving on a red light. Oh my god. It was green. It was green. I wasn't sure myself because I didn't see it that well. Yeah. Damn. I was about to like, step on the break if you told me. They're combated a lot. Yeah, I should. I should just relax. Okay, this is kind of super interesting. Watch out because there is some removal company. There is some lift. It's going to be very nice. It's pretty stretchy. Okay, on the left it looks okay. Yeah, on the right side too.

Yeah. No problem. Oh, I could see that I might quite a lot of people sweating around this. Yeah. I should have started logging my heart rate as soon as I... Oh yeah, that could be actually nice feature on your videos. Like in the corner that you see, a graph growing stress levels and not. Yes, just level. Okay. Well, we cannot turn right here according to the... In the show. interven if it tries to do it. Or should I let it... Let's see... Actually... I'm gonna cut it right here before we get into real trouble. That story is coming in another video, so definitely subscribe. This was my first taste of Brussels, but it's not the whole story. Over a year ago, I took my very first FSD drive in San Francisco. The streets there are way less challenging than the capital of Europe, but the emotional roller coaster, a whole other level. Is the video in the middle of your screen? Like this one if you enjoyed it, and I'll see you in the next one.
