z toho uplne caka confidence
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is on record saying, “Transparency is the key to trust.” Yet, Tesla has not been anything close to transparent about any of its autonomous driving or ADAS system efforts.
On the contrary, it has gone out of its way to try to hide any level of data consistently.....
Tesla has requested that NHTSA withhold its response to the numerous questions the regulators had about its recent Robotaxi launch.
As for the agency, it said that it is aware of some disturbing videos in which we can see Tesla’s system making serious mistakes on its first day.
Prior to Tesla’s Robotaxi launch on Sunday, NHTSA had sent Tesla a series of questions about the program, which Tesla was required to answer by June 19th.
The agency wanted a lot more details because it is particularly concerned about the fact that Tesla is using its ‘Supervised Full Self-Driving’ in the Robotaxi service while it is currently under investigation for its involvement in several serious crashes.
Tesla has now responded to NHTSA, but it has requested that the agency keep all its answers confidential.
The automaker has consistently avoided sharing data about its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving programs, particularly crash data.
There’s currently no indication that NHTSA will be able to release any information about Tesla’s Robotaxi service.
As we previously reported, the service launched with a Tesla employee in the front passenger seat with a finger constantly on the door unlactch button, which is likely to have been reprogrammed as a kill switch for the self-driving system.
This is likely information that would be confirmed and detailed in Tesla’s responses to NHTSA, and it would be critical, as it would prove that Tesla’s autonomous driving system can’t be considered level 4, which is now required to operate a commercial autonomous driving system, such as Robotaxi, in Texas.
