Tesla Motors apparently doesn't care if they kill people. Federal investigators blast Tesla, call for stricter safety standards | Ars Technica
The National Transportation Safety Board has filed comments blasting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for its permissive regulation of driver-assistance systems. The letter was dated February 1 but was only spotted by CNBC's Lora Kolodny on Friday. The letter repeatedly calls out Tesla's Autopilot for its lax safety practices and calls on NHTSA to establish minimum standards for the industry.
In the meantime, Tesla has launched a Beta Version of "true self-driving software."
"Tesla recently released a beta version of its Level 2 Autopilot system, described as having full self-driving capability," NTSB wrote. "By releasing the system, Tesla is testing on public roads a highly automated AV technology but with limited oversight and reporting requirements."
What could go wrong?
