However, on Sept 9., Yiran started to feel contractions in the middle of the night. Here are other details about what happened next.
Tesla FSD Helps Mother Give Birth!
The day after the mother felt her first contractions, her water had broken for a few seconds. Because of this, they were left with no choice but to go to the hospital.
Despite losing her strength, she could still get in their Tesla vehicle, thanks to her husband's help. But, since Keating's wife was squeezing his hand so tight, he decided to put their car on autopilot so that he could focus on her.
But, the husband still ensured that his hand was on the wheels. Both of them trusted their car's self-driving feature and decided to let the baby out.
After the successful birth, Keating thanked the engineers who built the FSD. You can view this link to see more details.
How Tesla FSD Impacts Drivers' Activities
The story above showed that Tesla FSD still offers some benefits, especially when it comes to unexpected emergencies. However, Car and Driver recently reported that the autopilot also lessens the drivers' road attention.
This detail was confirmed by MIT's study, saying that Tesla drivers are usually removing their gaze from the road since they already have FSD. But, Elon Musk clarifies that the feature is not yet intended to be used without your attention on the steering wheel.
