The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced a modest number of layoffs as it investigates the role of Tesla's self-driving technology in pedestrian deaths. Despite these layoffs, the agency boasts a workforce larger than at the onset of the Biden administration. NHTSA is currently probing three investigations into Tesla, focusing on the safety of their autonomous driving system, particularly under poor visibility conditions. The layoffs come amidst an overall effort led by Elon Musk to reshape federal bureaucracy through the Department of Government Efficiency.
The investigations into Tesla include scrutiny of its autonomous driving technology, particularly in low-visibility conditions, raising concerns on safety effectiveness.
