Elon Musk has been critical of U.S. federal regulations that hinder Tesla’s advancements in self-driving technology. His relationship with President Trump may lead to the dismissal of crucial federal investigations and mandates related to Tesla, raising concerns among safety advocates who argue that these oversight measures have played a vital role in preventing accidents and protecting lives. The Trump administration's potential actions could shift the balance of regulatory power and significantly benefit Tesla by unburdening it from ongoing scrutiny.
The potential chopping block includes crash investigations into Tesla's vehicles and a Justice Department probe regarding overstated self-driving capabilities.
Safety advocates credit investigations and recalls with saving lives, while Musk appears to desire greater control over the Department of Transportation.
