WASHINGTON, Nov 8 (Reuters) - The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration raised concerns about Tesla
social media posts that suggested its Full Self-Driving
software can be used as a robotaxi and do not need driver
attention.
NHTSA in October opened an investigation into 2.4 million
Tesla vehicles with FSD software after four reported collisions,
including a 2023 fatal crash. In a May 14 email made public
Friday, NHTSA told Tesla its social media postings could
encourage people to see FSD as a robotaxi "rather than a partial
automation/driver assist system that requires persistent
attention and intermittent intervention by the driver."
