Show Notes

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is intensifying its investigation into Teslas Full Self-Driving software due to concerns about its inability to detect poor visibility conditions. This camera-only system may not alert drivers when views are obstructed, potentially compromising road safety. The review involves over two million Tesla vehicles and has moved to a detailed engineering analysis, following reports of nine crashes linked to visibility flaws, including one fatal incident and two with injuries. Teslas shift to cameras alone after dropping radar has raised questions about the systems effectiveness in challenging conditions. The company suggests a software update could have prevented three of the crashes, aligning with a pattern of regulatory probes into Teslas driver aids.
