Tesla 'fires' Full Self-Driving testers, reveals what in-car camera does
Fox News
Tesla has revoked the privileges of several drivers who were testing a new beta version of its Full Self-Driving feature because they weren't paying attention to the road.
The feature, which Tesla drivers have pre-paid up to $10,000 for while it is in development, can "make lane changes off-highway, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects, and make left and right turns." Musk has previously said he has experienced it driving from point to point across Los Angeles several times with no human intervention required and videos of other operators having the same experience have been posted to social media. Musk also apparently confirmed that the cars are using an internal camera to monitor driver awareness, something that hadn’t previously been widely revealed. It’s not clear if the testers are expressly notified of this fact, but images of the information screens they are presented with that have surfaced do not mention it.More Related News
