Overview
- Regulators cite 58 incident reports alleging FSD directed cars to run red lights or enter opposing lanes, with crashes, fires and 23 injuries reported.
- The inquiry covers FSD (Supervised) and FSD (Beta) across an estimated 2,882,566 vehicles in the U.S.
- ODI detailed six crashes after Teslas proceeded through red signals with FSD engaged, four involving injuries, and will assess whether drivers were warned and had time to intervene.
- Investigators will examine FSD’s ability to detect and display traffic signals and lane markings and will review similar behavior at railroad crossings.
- Multiple incidents occurred at the same Joppa, Maryland intersection that Tesla addressed with a software change, and the probe is the first step that can lead to a recall if safety risks are found.
