Type of Traffic Light
Vehicle Intended Response
Model X slows down and comes to a complete stop
at the red stop line displayed on the instrument
panel. When you want to proceed through the
intersection (for example, the light turns green
again), you must briefly press the accelerator pedal.
NOTE:
If the traffic light changes
after
you've
confirmed that you want to proceed (for example, a
green traffic light turns yellow), Model X may stop
instead of continuing, especially if Model X
determines that it can safely stop before entering
the intersection.
NOTE:
Model X is not designed to proceed through
an intersection when the traffic light is red or if the
light turns yellow in situations when there is
adequate distance to safely stop before entering the
intersection.
NOTE:
You can take over driving at any time by
manually braking to cancel Autosteer or Traffic-
aware Cruise Control.
Model X slows down. To proceed, you must briefly
press the accelerator pedal. If you don’t, Model X
stops at the red stop line displayed on the
instrument panel.
NOTE:
To prevent Model X from stopping, and to
minimize how much it slows down as it approaches,
you can confirm that you want to proceed by briefly
pressing the accelerator pedal at any time after the
instrument panel displays the red stop line. Model X
resumes your set cruising speed immediately after
you confirm (taking into consideration the speed of
a vehicle in front of you).
WARNING:
Approach attentively and be
prepared to press the brake pedal to slow
down or stop.
