U.S. to require crash reports for driver-assistance autos

The Hindu  

U.S. safety regulators now will require Tesla and other auto manufacturers that make cars with driver assistance systems to report serious crashes, ramping up scrutiny of these systems after a series of troubling incidents. "By mandating crash reporting, the agency will have access to critical data that will help quickly identify safety issues that could emerge in these automated systems," said NHTSA Acting Administrator Steven Cliff. Tesla's technology also garnered unwanted publicity from Consumer Reports testers who demonstrated how to "fool" Autopilot into driving a Tesla without anyone behind the wheel. The private Center for Auto Safety praised NHTSA's announcement as an "overdue, but welcome, first step" to "oversee technology currently being tested and used on America's roads with scant oversight due to minimal data collection."
