Viral videos show Tesla drivers eating full meals while using Full Self-Driving mode
A clip posted by the X account Teslaconomics shows a driver eating a large spread of food—including sushi, sausages and stew—while a Tesla, apparently a Cybertruck, drives itself on a busy road using FSD. The post went viral, drawing heavy criticism, and is part of a wider trend of Tesla drivers posting videos of themselves multitasking, including working or gaming, while the car drives. The poster later clarified they were wearing Ray-Ban Meta glasses to record hands-free and that the car was using Tesla's 'FSD (Supervised)' feature.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The videos highlight a gap between Tesla's marketing of 'Full Self-Driving' and the fact that the system still legally requires an attentive human supervisor, suggesting some drivers may be treating supervised automation as if it were truly autonomous. Public backlash in the comments, including calls for legal penalties, indicates growing concern that such behavior could normalize distracted driving and endanger other road users. The incident could draw renewed scrutiny to how Tesla names and markets its driver-assistance features.
