San Francisco raises Tesla ‘self-driving’ safety concerns as public test nears

San Francisco transport authorities on Thursday raised concerns about the safety record of Tesla’s advanced driver assistant system, as the electric car maker prepared a wide release of a test version of the software that works on city streets and highways. The San Francisco County Transportation Authority (SFCTA) also disputed the name of the system, “Full Self-Driving” (FSD) saying it is an advanced driver assistance program, not an autonomous vehicle system. “We are concerned about the safety record of this service and the name of the service as it could be confusing for consumers, and hope DMV, FTC and NHTSA continue to monitor and analyze this issue to protect consumers and the traveling public,” she said.
