Belgian safety group Johanna.be found Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system frequently exceeded speed limits and attempted illegal overtakes of cyclists during tests in Brussels. The AI system often misread or misrepresented speed limits, posing safety risks to pedestrians and cyclists and violating local traffic laws.[AI generated]
Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
Tesla's Full Self-Driving system is an AI system that makes real-time driving decisions. The report documents repeated instances where the system exceeded speed limits and attempted illegal cyclist passes, which are direct safety hazards to people. These behaviors demonstrate malfunction or misuse of the AI system during its operation, leading to potential or actual harm to road users. The presence of videos and detailed testing results confirms the AI system's role in causing these harms. The event is not merely a potential risk but involves realized unsafe behavior, thus qualifying as an AI Incident rather than a hazard or complementary information.[AI generated]
