Editorial: Slam the brakes on Tesla's self-driving madness (via latimesopinion)
Until now, the DMV has taken a hands-off approach to Tesla’s development of self-driving cars. State legislators say it’s time for the agency to be more transparent.
How widespread are the problems? It’s hard to say because Tesla isn’t reporting its data to the DMV, which regulates the testing of autonomous vehicles in the state. Are some of the mishaps due to humans using Tesla’s systems in the wrong way? Who knows. Tesla has not publicized that any special training is required of test drivers.dozens of other companies experimenting with self-driving technology on California roads are following a reasonable set of rules.
. While the fine print on Tesla’s website says “Full Self-Driving” is “intended for use with a fully attentive driver who has their hands on the wheel,” the message engrained in the branding sure sounds like a car that drives itself. The message to DMV officials, however, is that the technology is not actually capable of self-driving and, therefore, is subject to less regulation.
