CBSN
A viral video of a motorist seeming to let Tesla's new Cybertruck drive itself while wearing the new Apple Vision Pro headset is sounding alarm alarm bells at the highest levels of the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Despite their names, Tesla's assisted driving features — Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot and Full Self-Driving — do not mean the vehicles are fully autonomous, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said Monday on social media.
"Reminder — all advanced driver assistance systems available today require the human driver to be in control and fully engaged in the driving task at all times," Buttigieg posted on X (formerly Twitter).
Los Angeles firefighters have made progress containing wildfires that have claimed at least 10 lives and caused unprecedented damage. In the weeks ahead, officials and residents will examine whether local authorities' warnings and early responses adequately prepared the city for the escalating crisis.
