Stop Sign Control enabled, Model S is designed to respond as follows when approaching
intersections controlled by stop signs, stop lines, or road markings:
Type of IntersectionVehicle Intended Response
No Traffic Control
Arm of T-junction
Model S assumes the right of way and continues straight
without slowing down or stopping.
End of T-junction
If Model S detects a T-junction based on the map data, Model S slows down and comes to a complete stop at the red stop line
displayed on the instrument panel. When you want to proceed,
you must take over steering and acceleration.
WARNING: Model S may not stop at a T-junction that does not have a stop sign or stop line, or if the T-junction is not included in the map data. Drive attentively and be prepared to stop (when necessary and/or appropriate).

Model S slows down and comes to a complete stop at the red
stop line displayed on the instrument panel. When you want to
proceed through the intersection, you must briefly press the
accelerator pedal.
NOTE: If you confirm that you want to proceed through an
intersection controlled by a stop sign by briefly pressing the
accelerator pedal before Model S has stopped, your confirmation is ignored. Model S is not designed to proceed
through a stop sign without stopping.
NOTE: Even when using Autosteer, and even if you have
engaged a turn signal, you must turn the steering yoke yourself
(which cancels Autosteer) to complete a turn at an
intersection.
WARNING: Model S also slows down and stops at a roundabout. You must take over steering (which cancels Autosteer) and briefly press the accelerator pedal to confirm that you want to continue through the roundabout.Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control

WARNING: At crosswalks, Model S may slow down and may stop, depending on whether the crosswalk is controlled by a traffic light and whether the cameras detect pedestrians, bicyclists, etc. in the crosswalk. Pay particular attention at crosswalks and be prepared to take over at any time. Failure to do so can result in injury or death.
Limitations

NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle configuration, options purchased, and software version, your vehicle may not be equipped with Autopark.
Autopark uses data from the cameras and
ultrasonic sensors and GPS to simplify
parking on public roads by maneuvering
Model S into parallel and perpendicular
parking spaces. See To Use Autopark on page 109.
CAUTION: Ensure all cameras and sensors are clean. Dirty cameras and sensors, as well as environmental conditions such as rain and faded lane markings, can affect Autopilot performance.
WARNING: Autopark

WARNING: When Autopark is active, monitor the touchscreen and instrument panel to ensure that you are aware of the instructions that Autopark is providing.
To Pause Parking
To pause Autopark, press the brake pedal
once. Model S stops and remains stopped
until you touch Resume on the touchscreen.
To Cancel Parking
Autopark cancels the parking sequence when
you manually move the steering yoke, change
gears, or touch Cancel on the touchscreen.
Autopark also cancels parking when:
