Sweden’s transport authority recommended the European Union reject Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software. The agency cited a feature allowing the system to automatically exceed legal speed limits.
The Swedish agency sent a formal letter to the EU’s Technical Committee on Motor Vehicles (TCMV). Regulators argued that systems programmed to break the law undermine safety and legal frameworks. Sweden advised the committee to require the removal of the speeding feature before granting approval.
The TCMV will discuss the recommendation on June 30. This development creates a significant regulatory hurdle for Tesla’s expansion into the European market. Individual European countries have approved the software, but a unified EU rejection would stall regional deployment.
