There is a (very poorly shot) video from inside of the car, but apparently it's still possible to see that they tried engaging FSD, but it didn't take. Don't have a link for the video, but it's easy to find.
The video comes from a guy who's campaigning for a Senate (?) seat and the only campaign issue is that of anti-Tesla.
You can be anti-FSD / autopilot and still be pro-Tesla.
The problem is how both autopilot / FSD have been advertised by Tesla vs what is happening in reality and on top of that the constant malfunctioning of this system and the questionable safety claims made by them tells us that it is is quite frankly deceptive and at as worse, a scam; including the price hikes.
This is even before the robo-taxi vapourware Elon was 'highly confident' in releasing. It was never about delivering a Level 5 Full Self Driving system. It was all about continuously over-promising and scamming their customers to buy more Tesla cars and additionally buy autopilot and FSD and pay for the price hikes on subscription.
