Tesla has received approval for its advanced driver assistance software "Full Self-Driving (Supervised)" in the Netherlands, the first European country. The Dutch vehicle authority RDW approved the system, which handles most driving tasks on highways and in city traffic under human supervision. Tesla is seeking approvals in other European countries.
Tesla has released promotional videos that depict drivers not supervising its Full Self-Driving system, even as the company faces up to $14.5 billion in related lawsuits. The videos include one posted on May 26 showing a driver making espresso and another on June 9 filmed in Denmark where the system violated traffic laws. These clips contradict Tesla's legal argument that drivers must always supervise the technology.
