California DMV has Tesla ‘under the review’ for the FSD Musk claim
According to The La Times, the Department of California motorcycle vehicles seems to be actively investigating Tesla for Elon Musk’s CEO claims about the full self-driving technology. The news came almost a week after Tesla engineers were personally treated at DMV that Musk had exaggerated the capabilities of the FSD system on social media.
The FSD is an option of $ 10,000 for the Tesla model and promises to do everything starting from changes in pathways in freeway traffic and taking over themselves to stop independently at traffic lights and signs. However, this does not make them “fully” autonomous. Tesla’s vehicle currently operates on level 2 autonomy, the Director of Autopilot Software CJ Moore told DMV researchers on the March 9 teleconference call.
“The driver’s interaction ratio needs to be within 1 or 2 million miles per driver’s interaction to move to a higher automation level,” a memo obtained by the effort obtained regarding the meeting that read. “Tesla showed that Elon extralates at the level of improvement when talking about the ability of L5. Tesla cannot say if the level of increase will make it L5 at the end of the calendar year.”
That fact, the Tesla itself acknowledged on its website “did not make autonomous cars” (although in Font Mincisul), has not yet stopped a number of Knuckleheads rich from treating these cars such as their personal robochuffeurs – with deadly results.
Although the California law blames the accident or damage caused when doing this right on them technically behind the wheel, the DMV does have the authority to punish a car company that misleads its customers under the Lanham Law, Associate Professor at the University of South Carolina School of School of Law tells the Times.
The sentences can include menpending (or restore revocation) permit to spread autonomous vehicles Tesla as well as the company’s manufacturing and dealer licenses. For the driver, revocation like that means that their vehicle can be “removed from public roads by a police officer,” said a DMV spokesman to moments, should the police notice that they have activated the FSD.
This is only the latest in Tesla’s long-term litigation of its self-driving system. The company currently faces hundreds of lawsuits, nearly two dozen investigations of NHTSA, and FTC are looking for allegations of deceptive marketing. Even the CCP endlessly dipped Tesla for weeks because of the recent accident.
