A Twitch streamer going by the name of jondwillis has almost had a disastrous experience while beta-testing Tesla's Full Self-Driving feature on his latest ride-along. As his featured clip plainly shows, the vehicle almost caused a car crash that, though not necessarily outright fatal, could've turned dangerous all the same.

Jondwillis has been streaming his Tesla FSD adventures on Twitch over the past couple of days, and though he's had a few hitches here and there, it doesn't seem like any of them have been nearly as tense as what happened this last time. The incident took place while the broadcaster was driving from Washington DC to San Francisco, at what looks like a completely ordinary set of traffic lights.

As jondwillis quickly found out, his Tesla had frozen up completely, not recognizing any inputs via the touchpad panel. As the lights turned green, the Tesla tried to back up into another vehicle for some reason, and it was the driver's quick reaction that stopped the car accident from happening. Though car-related streams and events are somewhat common on Twitch, as was the case of Hasan Piker trending after his $200,000 purchase, few of them get nearly as tense as what jondwillis had experienced here.

Following the incident, the streamer took over full control over the vehicle and pulled over into a nearby parking lot to settle down, as the experience must've been harrowing at that time. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that, had there been an accident, it wouldn't be the first time. Back in 2020, a distracted Tesla driver was killed when his car swerved into a freeway divider while he was playing games on the vehicle's dashboard tablet.

Later, in 2021, Tesla amped up its efforts to deliver games via its vehicles' infotainment console. As jondwillis' Twitch stream clearly shows, though, it doesn't take a distracted gamer for Tesla to cause an accident, and had the driver not been as attentive as he was, this may have been yet another strike against the company's push for a full self-driving option to become freely and readily available to drivers worldwide.

While hitches and bugs are a given since Tesla's Full Self-Driving mode is currently in its active beta testing phase, there's a point to be made about the dangers of letting the vehicle drive itself in a real-world traffic situation. Though the US government has already expressed its concerns about the Teslas' mid-ride gaming features, it certainly feels like Full Self-Driving itself will need more time in the oven before developing into a truly reliable resource for drivers. In the meantime, Twitch streams such as this one may come in handy to show how the system actually performs.
