good aeb trigger at speed. they might not avoid the crash entirely, but try to mitigate it.

Tesla is quite behind the state of the art here.

Teslas and other manufacturers will trigger at speed against a stationary vehicle detected by the adaptive cruise control system.

Teslas are beginning to trigger more at speed on perceived non-vehicle obstacles (added in a recent OTA update) but that is not without false positives which some have deemed the Tesla Brake Check.

I’ve experienced the errant braking, typically when a lane is partially obstructed but you are moving to avoid the obstruction, that is when it will trigger. I’m not a fan of this behavior. You can override it with a quick tap on the accelerator, but it jostles you.

Here is the Tesla's Model S video as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5aFZJxuJGQ
yeah I don't understand why there are so many posts in this thread that claim AEB can't do this kind of things with so much video evidence going around.

but here's the point, vision system detects objects it knows how to detect, lidar systems detects obstacles; as such doesn't surprise me a bit tesla is trained to recognize car from that aspect only to plow into 90deg rotated trucks, as when for example they cross an intersection.
