Tesla's Risky Ride: NHTSA Cracks Down on Cybercab Deployment The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has launched an investigation into Tesla's deployment of its Cybercab on public roads without traditional steering wheels or pedals.
This move comes just hours after the first Cybercabs hit the streets of Austin, Texas. The probe raises questions about Tesla's claims of compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).
While manufacturers often self certify their products as compliant, the lack of transparency surrounding Tesla's certification process is concerning.
