The Tesla Advisor then guides riders through the company\u2019s latest supervised FSD features, comfort settings, and in-car entertainment. Participants would also be able to interact with Grok AI in the vehicles. Grok will be capable of answering questions during the ride, and it will even tell stories along the way. <\/p>\n<p>Tesla noted, however, that Tesla Ride sessions are capped at 45 minutes each, and it requires participants to have a valid driver\u2019s license and insurance. Interested participants are also advised to call beforehand so they can schedule their Tesla Rides.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">NEWS: Tesla has introduced a new program called \u201cTesla Ride\u201d in the U.S. to encourage people to try FSD and more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe&#8217;ll come to you and take you where you want to go.

Participating states are numerous, from Michigan to Virginia to Illiois, Nevada, and California, among others. A look at the official webpage for Tesla Ride shows that the company is still taking a very cautious approach with the program, with disclaimers clearly stating that FSD Supervised does not make Teslas autonomous just yet.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla\u2019s focus on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/tesla-top-exec-tom-zhu-highlights-elon-musks-prime-directive-for-fsd\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">safety<\/a> with FSD was highlighted recently by Senior Vice President for Automotive Tom Zhu. \u201cElon said it in 2021: \u201cFor self-driving, even if the road is painted completely wrong and a UFO lands in the middle of the road, the car still cannot crash and still needs to do the right thing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe prime directive for the autopilot system is: Don\u2019t crash. That really overrides everything.
