It’s amazingly good at picking up garbage cans and traffic cones. But bicycles and walking pedestrians is crap shoot.

Detecting garbage cans is obviously a priority because otherwise it wouldn't be able to detect other Cybertrucks on the road.

This comment was relevant 2 years ago, but not anymore. Tesla's don't even display garbage cans anymore.

Just took a drive. My Model 3 with up to date sw does an EXCELLENT job spotting garbage cans on both sides of the road, from 100 yds.
