Recent independent safety tests have raised serious concerns about Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) software. In a demonstration conducted by The Dawn Project, a Tesla Model Y equipped with FSD version 13.2.9 failed to stop for a stopped school bus with its stop sign extended and flashing red lights. Alarmingly, the vehicle proceeded to strike a child-sized mannequin placed in its path. Notably, the Tesla's system did detect the mannequin, classifying it as a pedestrian. However, it made no attempt to stop or even slow down, raising questions about the reliability and safety of Tesla’s autonomous driving technology.
