## Narrative
On October 20, 2026, at approximately 8:14 PM, I was starting a drive from a parked position in a parking garage. I engaged Full Self-Driving (Supervised), software version 14.3.10. Within less than 2 seconds of engagement, the vehicle moved forward and struck a concrete support pillar. I was seated in the driver's seat and supervising, but the vehicle hit the pillar before I could intervene.  Failed systems: FSD (Supervised) steered the vehicle into a stationary, clearly visible obstacle. Automatic emergency braking did not prevent the collision.  Safety risk: The vehicle drove into a fixed structure in a garage used by pedestrians and other vehicles. The same behavior near a pedestrian could cause serious injury. [No one was injured.]  Warnings before the crash: None  Evidence: I have the vehicle's dashcam footage of the collision. The clip's embedded telemetry shows FSD (Supervised) was active at the moment of impact. Footage is available on request.  Inspection: The vehicle was inspected by the insurer and repaired at a Tesla-approved collision center. The problem has not been reproduced by a service center. The vehicle is available for inspection on request.
