Tesla's Self-Driving Tech Faces Intensified Federal Probe
The NHTSA has expanded its investigation into Tesla's 'Full Self-Driving' software after discovering more issues with the system's performance in low-visibility conditions.
Tesla's advanced driver assistance system, known as 'Full Self-Driving (Supervised)', is facing increased scrutiny from federal regulators. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has upgraded its investigation into the software after finding more instances where it struggled to perform in low-visibility situations.
The NHTSA initially launched a probe into Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software in August 2021, focusing on its performance in certain traffic and weather conditions. Now, the agency has elevated the investigation, indicating that the issues are more widespread than previously thought.
