This is true, friend has one. Just like regular cruise control, you can goose it and it returns to self driving. Not for long though I think, then it shuts off.
The other thing not mentioned are the interior cameras, Teslas have interior cameras too so they have him recorded doing whatever he was doing.
Oh yeah that was unclear. I meant i think it doesn’t let you just keep accelerating in FSD without shutting off FSD. But I actually don’t know. I’ll ask the owner I know.
As a different owner, pressing the accelerator while in FSD does not disengage. Keeping it pressed shows a warning that the car will not brake while you are overriding it. Holding it for a longer period (maybe 20s?) will start some warning feedback that will result in FSD disengaging after several more seconds. It also disengages if you exceed a set limit, which I think is 85, but I don’t hit that situation often.

I want to believe you, because that’s the sensible way of handling user input. But here’s a forbes article about another incident:
That’s what I said? The accelerator does not disable self drive, and it’s not in the list.
Oh then I misinterpreted this line to mean the opposite, my bad!

That Forbes article is also wrong. Pressing the right scroll wheel activates voice command input and does nothing to FSD.
Different models and years behave differently. Cars with no stalks use the right wheel.
Does the right wheel activate voice input on those models? Because if so, that’s really bad UX.
No, there are separate buttons around the wheels.
