The new "Mad Max" mode encourages aggressive driving, leading to observed traffic violations such as ignoring stop signs and speeding, which are direct harms to public safety (harm to persons). The NHTSA's investigation and multiple accident reports linked to FSD further confirm realized harm or risk of harm. Since the AI system's use has directly led to unsafe driving behavior and accidents, this qualifies as an AI Incident under the framework's criteria for harm to persons and disruption of critical infrastructure (road safety).

An AI system (Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving) is involved as an advanced driver assistance system. The event involves the use of the AI system (or rather the misconception of its use) and the spread of misinformation about its capabilities. Although no direct harm occurred, the misinformation could plausibly lead to harm if drivers overtrust the system and reduce vigilance, which is a recognized risk. Therefore, this event qualifies as an AI Hazard because it plausibly could lead to harm related to the AI system's use, but no harm has yet materialized.

Tesla's Full Self-Driving system is an AI system that autonomously controls vehicle behavior. The 'Mad Max' mode modifies this AI system to drive aggressively, exceeding speed limits and weaving through traffic, which has been reported by users and shown in videos.
