Judge’s Tesla 60-Day Ultimatum: Rename Autopilot or Face Sales Ban
from The John Johnston Lounge · host John Johnston
John Johnston (JJ) breaks down the news that a judge in California has ruled that Tesla’s marketing of its “Autopilot” and “Full Self-Driving” systems was deceptive, and that Tesla’s license to sell and produce cars in the state should be revoked for 30 days. The California DMV has said it will give Tesla 60 days to comply and fix its marketing before going through with the suspension. This news comes at the same that Tesla is beginning to remove in-car safety monitors from its robotaxis in Austin, Texas. Is Tesla’s driving software now safe enough to operate fully autonomous robotaxis?Related episodes:Tesla Faces New NHTSA Probe of ‘Almost Sentient’ FSD https://open.spotify.com/episode/2LX5ly0J5ORNp8yGg0ERnVElon’s Tesla Self-Driving Lies Are Catching Up To Him: Forbes https://open.spotify.com/episode/4f1avoIZag16DWbEospxfSJury Finds Tesla Partly Liable ($243m) in Autopilot Fatality https://open.spotify.com/episode/6ScnbKkJutsMmBlfR0izzXReferenced video:The Insanity of Tesla CRASH DATA https://youtu.be/zT-sfRF6Hvk
