Can Tesla's Self Driving Systems Handle the Snow? What This Video Shows

Tesla's self driving software works great in the sun and clear weather. How does it handle when it is snowing or with bad weather?

Tesla Self Driving In the Snow

We see a video of a Tesla with FSD Beta driving in the snow. It seems to be handling it pretty well. Many ask, "Can Tesla's Autopilot or FSD handle the snow?" We'll try to answer that now.

In this video from the Twitter user, Sawyer Merritt, we can see a Tesla driving at night and in the snow. There are no visible lane markings, and there is snow flying at the camera and Tesla.

Tesla's visualization for FSD still shows a left and right side of the road, with a path forward for the vehicle to go. There is no visualization for a center line, and I don't think the software could make such a thing with how much snow is on the ground.

When a human driver is driving on the road like this, everything becomes an estimation of where the lines should be. In this case, it's a 1 lane forward and 1 lane coming road, so the software has to deduce that about the middle of the road is where the line would be and try to stay centered on the right side of the road.
