A bipartisan group of U.S. senators is urging federal regulators to launch a probe into Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature following a reported incident involving a train crossing. The lawmakers say they want answers on software safety and company responsibility.
The incident reportedly involved a Tesla vehicle at a railroad crossing, raising fresh questions about FSD’s reliability in complex environments. The senators’ letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) seeks information and accountability.
Tesla has not publicly addressed the senators’ request yet. If a formal investigation begins, it could have significant regulatory implications for autonomous driving technology in the U.S., especially around how liability and oversight are managed.
