In the last 4 months, FSD Supervised has been over 5.2x safer than manual driving – across 65 million kilometers in 5 EU countries

@moo9000 @puheenaihefi I have no issue playing the video with an Austrian location, phone, IP address (no VPN) and Google/YT account.

[Ricky 🧩 @RickyJamesSm1th]

@EU_Commission If you prioritized human life over bureaucratic jargon, you'd finally allow us to use FSD Supervised. A system that has been rigorously tested and shown to be significantly safer than a person driving without the system.

In the last 2 months, FSD Supervised has been over 3x safer than manual driving on Dutch roads

[Ricky 🧩 @RickyJamesSm1th]

@ThatConda @elonmusk Unlikely, they'd probably just adhere to those laws like any other ISP would.

Possible in theory to ignore, but that would likely make the service illegal, and they'd be forced to shut down their EU ground stations. The result would be a slow/bad service that is illegal to use.

🚨 The EU Commission posted: “Smarter cars mean safer roads.” Starting July 7, all new EU cars must have advanced emergency braking for pedestrians/cyclists, driver distraction warnings, etc.
Yet after 18+ months of rigorous testing, Tesla FSD (Supervised), already approved in the Netherlands with real-world data showing it 3.5x safer than manual driving there (0 highway crashes in 16M+ km), is still not fully approved EU-wide.
5 countries have it via mutual recognition. The big ones are dragging their feet.
If you truly want safer roads, approve proven AI that reduces human error instead of just mandating yesterday’s tech. Bureaucracy shouldn’t cost lives.
What’s the holdup, @EU_Commission?

@ThatConda @Vivek4real_ @Rick3r67 I’ll offer $2.10

[Ricky 🧩 @RickyJamesSm1th]

@ThatConda @cybertruck @elonmusk @grok how exactly would Tesla train FSD to do that? I‘d assume simply adding videos to the training set of light collisions to avoid larger collisions would be too dangerous due to the possibility of false positives 🤔

There are certainly issues regarding AI that governments need to seriously consider. Unfortunately, they don’t see the urgency at all.

However, stopping development in one part of the world won’t let governments catch up, it’ll further delay solutions. Meanwhile, the technology continues to be developed somewhere else, making you dependent on those regions.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI.

The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.

@davidfowl It seems so simple... then you can't even get it to work on localhost 🥲

Your “wake-up call” is actually a lullaby keeping Europe asleep at the wheel.

While Tesla FSD Supervised has already driven:
• >2 BILLION miles safely
• 5–7× safer than human drivers (Tesla Q3 2025 Safety Report)
• Prevents a crash every 7 seconds

…you demand an “immediate pause” on UNECE WP.29 because Level 2 systems *might* pull away from a traffic light?

That exact feature has been live for years in Mercedes Drive Pilot, BMW Highway Assistant, Volvo Pilot Assist, GM Super Cruise…
European crashes caused by “system-initiated traffic-light departure” in 2025? → ZERO.

Your source? The NHTSA probe into 2,500+ incidents where 99% were human error (asleep, drunk, phone) WHILE FSD was engaged.
That’s not proof the system is dangerous — that’s proof supervision WORKS.

Europe doesn’t need another “independent agency”.
We need acceleration.

Every month FSD is delayed here, ~3,000 Europeans die on the roads (Eurostat 2024).
THOSE are the real “disastrous consequences”.

Stop protecting outdated rules.
Start saving lives.

#ApproveFSDNow #UNECENow #VisionOnly

500,000+ European Tesla drivers aren’t asking for permission.
We’re demanding progress.

Tesla AI & data > dogma & delay.

P.S. Follow the money: who funds ETSC? Legacy OEMs terrified of being left behind.

🚨 EUROPE🚨
The time is now! Supporters are speaking, people are speaking and most importantly NUMBERS are speaking. It is time to set in the full force against @UNECE ! Europeans have had enough, we care about safety of our people and @UNECE does NOT!

ALLOW FSD TODAY!!!

[The Tesla Newswire @TeslaNewswire]

🇪🇺 Tesla owners have just launched a petition to bring FSD (Supervised) to Europe.

@RomainHedouin What was so good about 2022 cruise control? 😅

I’m only familiar with 2024+ Autopilot, the only real issue I have regularly is randomly breaking for oncoming traffic in another lane. Or maybe the fact that is drives a bit too far to the left for my comfort 🤔

[Ricky 🧩 @RickyJamesSm1th]

@UNECE @UN @JeanTodt @UN_RSF @UN_PGA @UNGeneva @UNRSC You are literally letting people die by not allowing life-saving technology such as Tesla‘s supervised Full Self-Driving software.

Please reconsider the way you develop these safety standards to allow the use of innovative technology and actually have a positive impact 🙏

[Ricky 🧩 @RickyJamesSm1th]

@GerberKawasaki Do you think different cameras would be sufficient, hardware-wise?

Like a higher dynamic range, higher field of view, and maybe a different placement or more cameras.

[Ricky 🧩 @RickyJamesSm1th]

@ThatConda Exactly 😂
Also those 15 seconds took over a minute 😅
