A video appearing to show a Tesla’s screen attempting to interpret chaotic Indian traffic has sparked widespread jokes online, with one post declaring, “India is not for Tesla.” The clip reportedly shows the vehicle’s visualisation screen detecting people and vehicles from multiple directions while a truck suddenly enters the scene. News18 could not independently verify the video’s veracity or location. Reactions ranged from jokes about Tesla’s AI being overwhelmed to arguments that India could serve as a valuable real-world testing ground for autonomous driving. One user joked, “Tesla AI was probably like, ‘WTF is this test, it’s so complicated’,” while another quipped, “Tesla: No Way Home.” Some users noted the chaotic scenes could provide useful data, with one comment reading, “That’s actually a good real world test,” and another arguing, “Tesla’s FSD will become better with all this data!” The comment continued, “The key to Tesla FSD is the data it gets on vehicle and its surrounding behaviour and this is gold mine for them.” Others highlighted visual perception challenges, with one user writing, “I love how FSD can’t differentiate a picture of people on a truck from people walking in the middle of the road.” Practical suggestions included one person joking, “Musk should come up with scooters in India,” while another imagined the navigation system saying, “Yeah… we’re gonna need more compute 💀.”
