A new report accuses Tesla of using "misleading" data regarding the safety of its Full Self-Driving system to get it approved for use in Europe. The company's own safety statistics, which were sent to some regulators in Europe, have been called little more than marketing materials, and not an accurate depiction of the capabilities of the system or its positive effect on safety. That's a hefty claim; here's why regulators are upset.

 

Last month, Reuters published an examination of the safety claims made by Tesla and its CEO, Elon Musk. Both have been claiming for quite some time that the FSD driver assistance feature is up to 10 times safer than human drivers.
