Full Self-Driving Is Limited
Full Self-Driving as it is called isn’t fully autonomous. It comes with a lot of improvements over other self-driving technologies. Parallel parking, automatic lane changes are some of the advanced features of the self-driving option.
The technology also features a “summon” feature. The feature automatically moves and parks the car. Traffic lights recognition and stop sign control are a part of some upgrades that are expected to occur soon. While there are several regulatory hurdles to clear for full self-driving capability, Tesla has been able to increase its homegrown technology base.
Musk has been involved in disagreements with Alameda county officials over the opening of his Fremont factory. It negatively influenced the Tesla stock price.
Tesla came under the investigator’s scrutiny in 2018 after a driver was involved in an accident. The driver was killed while using autopilot. Further investigations revealed that the driver was playing a video game as the crash occurred.
Though Tesla’s self-driving technology has been certified fit for use, it still has many limitations. The operations of the technology require drivers to hold their steering wheels while the current self-driving technology is active.
As improvements occur in the self-driving sector, we shall see autonomous driving become a normal activity. For now, though, Tesla has many milestones to achieve before making that dream a reality.
