Tesla's Full Self-Driving System Misreads Speed Limits During Tests in Belgium
A Belgian road safety organization named Johanna.be found that Tesla’s (TSLA) Full Self-Driving system misread speed limits and exceeded legal speeds on 30-km/h roads during tests conducted in Brussels. The report indicated the autonomous driving feature failed to comply with local traffic regulations, raising concerns about its reliability. The FSD also attempted illegal overtaking maneuvers involving cyclists where such actions are prohibited under Belgian law. These findings could impact Tesla’s reputation and regulatory approval for self-driving technology in Europe. Johanna.be conducted tests over a limited period but highlighted significant safety issues that may require further scrutiny by authorities before wider deployment of the system. The results add to growing concerns about autonomous driving systems, particularly as companies like Tesla push toward broader adoption without full validation across diverse road conditions.
