NHTSA would have to approve any robotaxi without pedals or a steering wheel, and it&#8217;s unlikely that would happen while the investigation is in progress. But if the company tries to deploy autonomous vehicles in its existing models, that likely would fall to state regulations. There are no federal regulations specifically focused on autonomous vehicles, although they must meet broader safety rules.<\/p>\n<p>NHTSA also said it would look into whether any other similar crashes involving \u201cFull Self-Driving\u201d have happened in low visibility conditions, and it will seek information from the company on whether any updates affected the system\u2019s performance in those conditions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn particular, this review will assess the timing, purpose and capabilities of any such updates, as well as Tesla\u2019s assessment of their safety impact,\u201d the documents said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"resg-s1-29030-101\" class=\"bucketwrap internallink insettwocolumn inset2col \">\n<div class=\"bucket img\">\n                  <a class=\"imagewrap\" id=\"featuredStackSquareImagenx-s1-5144675\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2024\/10\/10\/nx-s1-5144675\/tesla-robotaxi-cybercab-reveal-thursday\" data-metrics-ga4=\"{&quot;category&quot;:&quot;recirculation&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:&quot;story_recirculation_click&quot;,&quot;clickType&quot;:&quot;inset box&quot;,&quot;clickUrl&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.npr.org\\\/2024\\\/10\\\/10\\\/nx-s1-5144675\\\/tesla-robotaxi-cybercab-reveal-thursday&quot;}\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/15\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-original=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/100\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-format=\"webp\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" type=\"image\/webp\"\/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/15\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-original=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/100\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-format=\"jpeg\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" type=\"image\/jpeg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/100\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/5000x5000+1251+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F61%2Fb2%2F584c3dd64b7a924189c4b8e1971f%2Fgettyimages-2147789847.jpg\" data-format=\"jpeg\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" alt=\"Tesla CEO Elon Musk gestures at the Tenth Breakthrough Prize Ceremony at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, California, on April 13, 2024.

An agency database says the pedestrian was killed in Rimrock, Arizona, in November of 2023 after being hit by a 2021 Tesla Model Y. Rimrock is about 100 miles (161 kilometers) north of Phoenix.<\/p>\n<p>The Arizona Department of Public Safety said in a statement that the crash happened just after 5 p.m. Nov. 27 on Interstate 17. Two vehicles collided on the freeway, blocking the left lane. A Toyota 4Runner stopped, and two people got out to help with traffic control. A red Tesla Model Y then hit the 4Runner and one of the people who exited from it. A 71-year-old woman from Mesa, Arizona, was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n<aside id=\"ad-secondary-wrap\" class=\"ad-wrap secondary\" aria-label=\"advertisement\">\n<\/aside>\n<p>The collision happened because the sun was in the Tesla driver&#8217;s eyes, so the Tesla driver was not charged, said Raul Garcia, public information officer for the department. Sun glare also was a contributing factor in the first collision, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla has twice recalled \u201cFull Self-Driving\u201d under pressure from NHTSA, which in July sought information from law enforcement and the company after a Tesla using the system struck and killed a motorcyclist near Seattle.<\/p>\n<p>The recalls were issued because the system was programmed to run stop signs at slow speeds and because the system disobeyed other traffic laws. Both problems were to be fixed with online software updates.<\/p>\n<p>Critics have said that Tesla\u2019s system, which uses only cameras to spot hazards, doesn\u2019t have proper sensors to be fully self driving. Nearly all other companies working on autonomous vehicles use radar and laser sensors in addition to cameras to see better in the dark or poor visibility conditions.<\/p>\n<div id=\"resg-s1-29030-102\" class=\"bucketwrap internallink insettwocolumn inset2col \">\n<div class=\"bucket img\">\n                  <a class=\"imagewrap\" id=\"featuredStackSquareImagenx-s1-5049715\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2024\/07\/24\/nx-s1-5049715\/elon-musk-donald-trump-tesla\" data-metrics-ga4=\"{&quot;category&quot;:&quot;recirculation&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:&quot;story_recirculation_click&quot;,&quot;clickType&quot;:&quot;inset box&quot;,&quot;clickUrl&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.npr.org\\\/2024\\\/07\\\/24\\\/nx-s1-5049715\\\/elon-musk-donald-trump-tesla&quot;}\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/15\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-original=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/100\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-format=\"webp\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" type=\"image\/webp\"\/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/15\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-original=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/100\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-format=\"jpeg\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" type=\"image\/jpeg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/100\/quality\/100\/format\/jpeg\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/4461x4461+986+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F64%2F01%2Fcba3240d4ab09d91205ea415aab5%2Fgettyimages-2162689258.jpg\" data-format=\"jpeg\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" alt=\"Tesla CEO Elon Musk applauds as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks to a joint meeting of Congress at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

Autopilot is a fancy version of cruise control, while \u201cFull Self-Driving\u201d has been billed by Musk as capable of driving without human intervention.<\/p>\n<aside id=\"ad-third-wrap\" class=\"ad-wrap third\" aria-label=\"advertisement\">\n<\/aside>\n<p>The investigation that was opened Thursday enters new territory for NHTSA, which previously had viewed Tesla&#8217;s systems as assisting drivers rather than driving themselves. With the new probe, the agency is focusing on the capabilities of \u201cFull Self-Driving&#8221; rather than simply making sure drivers are paying attention.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Brooks, executive director of the nonprofit Center for Auto Safety, said the previous investigation of Autopilot didn&#8217;t look at why the Teslas weren&#8217;t seeing and stopping for emergency vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore they were kind of putting the onus on the driver rather than the car,\u201d he said. \u201cHere they&#8217;re saying these systems are not capable of appropriately detecting safety hazards whether the drivers are paying attention or not.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2024\/10\/19\/g-s1-29030\/us-probe-tesla-full-self-driving-system\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The logo of Tesla car is pictured at the Paris Auto Show, in Paris on Oct. 14, 2024.
