U.S. regulators are ポルノ映画 郡山investigating Tesla over its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software.
On Friday, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) Office of Defects announced that it was investigating Elon Musk's EV car company over "failure of the system engineering controls to react appropriately to reduced roadway visibility conditions."
According to the NHTSA, there have been four reported and identified incidents where a Tesla vehicle crashed when it was "entering an area of reduced roadway visibility conditions with FSD -Beta or FSD -Supervised (collectively, FSD) engaged." The reduced roadway visibility was attributed to common issues such as sun glare, fog, or airborne dust.

Tesla's Full-Self Driving investigation
The NHTSA says it will conduct a "preliminary evaluation" to assess a number of factors concerning Tesla's Full-Self Driving software.
Regulators will be looking into FSD’s ability to both detect and respond appropriately to situations where reduced roadway visibility conditions are present. They will also look into whether there are similar additional FSD crashes that occurred where reduced roadway visibility conditions were present and if they played a role in the occurrence of the accident.
