AUSTIN, Texas — A Tesla owner has crossed a milestone no one had reached before: 25,000 consecutive miles on Full Self-Driving (Supervised) without a single steering correction, brake tap, or manual intervention. Prolific FSD user David Moss hit the mark this week, with the milestone shared publicly on Aug. 9, and Tesla's on-screen streak counter marked the moment with a burst of digital confetti as the widget ticked over to 25,000.
One Lap Around The Planet
To put the number in perspective, 25,000 miles is roughly the circumference of Earth and about two years of driving for the average American — all of it handled by the car, under supervision, without the driver needing to take over. The confetti celebration, which last appeared for Moss at his 5,000-mile streak, returned to mark the new high. He is no stranger to these records, having previously logged nearly 13,000 uninterrupted miles and completed the first intervention-free FSD drive across Canada.
The achievement lands as Tesla continues to widen FSD's reach, including the recent rollout of a lighter build in FSD v14.1 Lite for older hardware. Each new build feeds on the same real-world driving data that streaks like this one help generate.
Gamifying The Miles
Tesla has steadily built a gamified layer around uninterrupted driving, first adding a dedicated Self-Driving Stats section, then an intervention-free streak widget on the main screen, and later full-screen celebration animations at milestones like 250, 1,000, and 5,000 miles. The features reward engaged drivers and encourage them to let the system handle more, part of a broader personalization push that includes FSD learning to match a driver's style, as covered in how FSD adapts to each driver.
