Moody’s downgrades Senegal to Caa1 amid rising debt concerns
Investing.com -- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced Thursday it has launched an investigation into 2.88 million Tesla vehicles equipped with the company’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) system due to potential traffic safety violations.
The auto safety regulator stated that the FSD system, which is designed as a driver assistance feature requiring constant driver attention and intervention when needed, has "induced vehicle behavior that violated traffic safety laws."
According to the NHTSA, there have been reports of Tesla vehicles running red traffic lights and traveling against the proper direction during lane changes while the FSD system was engaged.
The investigation encompasses nearly 3 million Tesla vehicles that are equipped with the Full Self-Driving technology, which despite its name requires active driver supervision at all times.
