Tesla driver assistance approved in more European countries
On October 26, Latvia became the 10th country in Europe to approve Tesla’s driver assistance software.
Slovakia also approved it earlier this month.
But a Reuters test-drive report from the region noted one detail:
Drivers still need to take over promptly in some complex road conditions, including when encountering closed roadblocks.
The most misleading thing about driver assistance is that its name can make it sound as though the car can think for itself.
The technology’s progress is encouraging, but the person behind the wheel still needs to stay alert.
Approval in some European countries does not mean the entire EU has fully authorized it.
