The watchdog said Tesla's software allows a vehicle to "exceed speed limits or travel through intersections in an unlawful or unpredictable manner", increasing the risk of an accident.

 

The recall covers 2016-2023 Model S, Model X, 2017-2023 Model 3, and 2020-2023 Model Y vehicles equipped with FSD Beta software.

 

It was unclear, currently, whether the alert had implications for Tesla's cars in other countries including the UK.

Many Tesla owners have been caught asleep at the wheel as they go down the road I’ve personally seen one woman reading a book not a care in the world nor an eye on the road scary indeed 

Darwinism will sort them out, but unfortunately, they'll take far too many innocents with them.

Musk has a history of making promises that cannot be kept and even promoting false claims. This from back in 2016 but just made public last month.

 

Tesla video promoting self-driving was staged, senior engineer testifies

A 2016 video that Tesla used to promote its self-driving technology was staged to show capabilities like stopping at a red light and accelerating at a green light that the system did not have, according to testimony by a senior engineer.

The video, which remains archived on Tesla’s website, was released in October 2016 and promoted on Twitter by Elon Musk as evidence that “Tesla drives itself”.

Hard to believe, anywhere in the world, people would let their car self drive. 

 

Here, TH, can be tricky when you are paying attention.  Not so much where I am, as they seem to drive quite good here:
