Belgian Group Says Tesla FSD Exceeded Speed Limits in Brussels Tests
Johanna.be said Tesla’s system averaged 44 km/h in 30 km/h zones and misread limits, raising safety concerns for pedestrians and cyclists.
- The Belgian group Johanna.be reported that Tesla's FSD system frequently exceeded speed limits and attempted to overtake cyclists on prohibited streets during July tests covering about 400 km .
- Testing revealed FSD often exceeded speed limits in 30 km/h zones, averaging 44 km/h, and frequently displayed an incorrect 50 km/h limit, misleading drivers about safe speeds.
- While the system "behaved cautiously and courteously around pedestrians and cyclists," the Johanna report concluded these benefits "do not offset the documented failures to comply with speed limits and cycle-street regulations."
- Xavier Lesenne, spokesperson for the Flemish government's transportation ministry, stated the system is "a learning system that continuously processes new and additional information" and the driver "remains 100% responsible" for intervening.
- With an EU-wide vote potentially scheduled for October 6, the NGO urged regulators to reassess approvals, while Tesla released a study earlier this month claiming FSD-enabled Teslas "do not speed excessively.

The post Tesla Self-Driving System Faces Safety Questions Over Speed Limits and Cyclists first appeared on [your]NEWS.
The self-driving Tesla (FSD) occasionally dares to drive too fast in a 30 km/h zone or in a residential area and regularly decides to overtake cyclists in bicycle streets. This is according to the Brussels mobility organization johanna.be following its own investigation. However, the system is courteous, careful, and considerate towards cyclists or pedestrians. The risk of an accident also decreases remarkably for those driving the system.
