"The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has opened an investigation into nearly 2.9 million Tesla vehicles over potential traffic-safety violations linked to the use of the company's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system. The agency said FSD may have induced vehicle behavior that violated traffic safety laws, citing reports of Teslas running red lights or traveling in the wrong direction during lane changes."
"Tesla has not commented on the investigation, which remains in the preliminary phase. However, any potential recall could prove complicated since the reported incidents likely involved the use of older FSD (Supervised) versions that have already been updated. Tesla's recent FSD (Supervised) V14.1 update, which is currently rolling out to drivers, is expected to feature significantly improved lane management, intersection handling, and overall driving accuracy, reducing the chances of similar violations."
NHTSA opened a preliminary investigation into nearly 2.9 million Tesla vehicles over potential traffic-safety violations tied to Full Self-Driving (FSD). NHTSA reported that FSD may have induced vehicle behavior violating traffic laws, with incidents including running red lights and traveling in the wrong direction during lane changes. The agency has six reports of FSD-engaged Teslas entering intersections on red and crashing, four causing major injuries. Eighteen complaints and one media report allege failures to remain stopped for red signals, incomplete stops, incorrect signal detection, and lack of warnings. Tesla has not commented; affected incidents likely involved older FSD versions that have since been updated and V14.1 aims to improve intersection handling while FSD remains a supervised system.
