Belgium approves Tesla Full Self-Driving software

Belgium has approved Tesla's Full Self-Driving software for use on public roads, becoming the fifth European country to do so. The decision follows Denmark's approval the previous day.

Annick De Ridder, the Flemish Minister for Mobility, announced the approval on June 10. She stated on X that she had signed the approval, which will now move to the country's homologation department for final verification. The move adds Belgium to a list that includes the Netherlands, Lithuania, Estonia and Denmark. De Ridder noted that the next steps involve notifying the Netherlands vehicle authority. The approvals mark a rapid sequence of regulatory clearances for the Level 2 driver-assistance system across Europe.

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.
