I did read it. They opened an investigation like 5 years after The Model S was released and people have died. Now, 6 years after that, something actually happens. 6 years of more accidents.
The same could be done with 3rd party software so there's no difference and it's not the same as the car system being regularly inspected.
I haven't followed it closely to know all the deets, but some action being taken is better than none. I'm not out here defending Tesla or current government policies. I do believe that if I have to pass a driving test to operate a vehicle, then whatever self-driving software is installed should do the same.
If you're trying to convince me that anyone should be able to take any random self driving software they found on the Internet, install it, and let it go wild on public streets, we're going to have to agree to disagree.
It seems you are trying to prove that "random software" is unsafe compared to Tesla's when you actually have no idea how safe Tesla's is.
There are multiple companies and universities developing software for self driving cars.
What if the "random software" was developed and maintained by Volvo, would you still call it "random software"? Would you still claim that Tesla's software is more safe to use?
Nope, if you look at a previous comment of mine in this thread, you'd see I'm fine with 3rd party software as long as it's been approved by regulators. Same goes for Tesla's software - if it hasn't been approved by regulators prior to deployment on the streets, I'm against it.
So you're not fine with Tesla's even?
Since there is no such testing you're talking about.
Nope, not fine with that. And you're right, the US has no testing. The EU however does regulate it and has not approved Tesla's self-driving feature.
Interesting article on that: https://www.theverge.com/2022/9/12/23339219/us-auto-regulation-type-approval-self-certification-av-tesla
