    I'm not calling it by its childish name.

    V12.5.4 was pushed to my 2021 Model 3 last evening so I went to an empty parking lot to give it a go. Worked correctly but not sure if it's something I would use in a busy parking lot, maybe unless it's pouring hard and everyone is waiting by the door.

    Yeah it's not something you would actually buy a car for. I noticed there's a much less sporty looking but super fast ionic 5 that can beat model 3 Performance in the ΒΌ mile. That is something people might buy a car for.

    With V12.4.3 (the previous version) on Wednesday, I let the car start from park from the SuperChargers:
    • Unplug
    • Enter destination
    • Shift to "D"
    • Tap stalk enable
    Since I need to drive to a new rifle range, I'll see how it handles starting from my driveway. For luck, I'll enable and connect WiFi from my 5G phone in case my download number comes up on the trip.

    With the previous version, when going to see my parents at their retirement home, I park where there is a large water puddle after a rain (it stays there a few days). I park ahead of it, get out, and let the car move to its place. When leaving, I back up the car remotely, get in then drive away. I like to park there because it's the closest to the entrance and it's large enough that no one parks beside me on both side.

    Is it affected by any laws or codes in a public place?

    Yes, the driver is 100% responsible.
