It's called Supervised Full Self Driving (FSD) and that is an accurate name given it controls every aspect of the vehicle's operation, only requiring the driver to pay attention as a supervisor. And, essentially, the same software and hardware available on a Model 3 and Model Y is present on the CyberCabs that are driving people around a few cities, now, without input mechanisms. Elon is a PoS, and it took a decade longer than he said, but the cars are driving themselves.

It's Tesla Assisted Driving in Europe. In the US, it's still FSD.

Yes thankyou for confirming my point. How did I know you would come and be pedantic about it?

I live in Europe, and here its not called Full Self Driving because regulators disagree with you that the car is driving itself. Therefore your original statement of "It's called Supervised Full Self Driving (FSD) and that is an accurate name given it controls every aspect of the vehicle's operation" is not true here at all.

If the US is happy with Elon lying about his cars abilities then thats on them. Not surprising really judging by the mess that is the USA in recent years.

European regulation is a joke, that why they are failing, look at the riots in France, businesses strangled by regulation.

> businesses strangled by regulation

Trumps current mess with huge increases of cost of living, and subsequent popularity decline is an example of what happens when you let business run free.
