Tesla driver blames FSD for speeding; police clarify driver remains responsible

A video released by Parker, Colorado police shows an incident where a Tesla car with FSD (Full Self-Driving) was pulled over for driving 64 mph in a 45 mph zone. When confronted, the driver argued he was not driving, but rather the autopilot system was. Police clarified that regardless of the assisted driving system, the driver remains legally responsible for vehicle safety. The incident highlights ongoing tensions between Tesla's "Full Self-Driving" name and the reality that it is a Level 2 system requiring driver supervision. Additionally, the article notes that recent FSD updates removed custom speed limit controls that allowed users to set maximum speed limits, a change some users view as problematic.
