Als je een zelfrijdende Tesla ziet ...
.. weet dat het een fabeltje is en dat het slecht gaat met Elon.
Dat zeggen ze bij Mediahuis en die hebben altijd gelijk, oké!
@bourscheid "I just don’t get it."
correct.
Neither you nor I can truly 'get it' - because neither of us has spent our entire life building companies that create so many jobs, wealth, and prosperity for humanity.
The Illusion of Safety in German Bureaucracy 🇩🇪🇪🇺
The Netherlands has approved it. Belgium is on board. The data clearly shows that it makes roads significantly safer. But in Germany? Silence.
It’s the same old story: whenever innovation doesn’t come from Wolfsburg, Stuttgart, or Munich, German politics seems quick to pull the bureaucratic handbrake. Under the banner of “strict regulations” and “thorough procedures,” advanced technology that can save lives today is simply kept out.
It’s no secret that the traditional German automotive industry is falling behind in AI and autonomous driving software. Instead of accelerating innovation, policymakers appear to be choosing protectionism. Institutions such as Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (BMDV) hide behind layers of paperwork and endless discussions within the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), while neighboring countries have already embraced the future.
The Dutch RDW has taken the lead and demonstrated that it can be done. The fact that German authorities have not immediately followed this approval is not a question of capability, but of willingness. Germany likes to present itself as the automotive capital of the world, yet when it comes to software and genuine innovation, it is stuck in traffic.
A call to all German Tesla owners, tech enthusiasts, and supporters of innovation 📣
Nothing will change unless we push for it together. German authorities need to feel the pressure. It’s time to start contacting the Federal Ministry and the responsible agencies in large numbers. Demand that they stop protecting outdated interests and start prioritizing road safety and innovation.
Make your voice heard. Fill their inboxes. The future shouldn’t have to wait.
Let’s make some noise. ✉️💥
@podevyns Ook benieuwd maar al wat ik al gezien heb geeft mij veel vertrouwen, er zijn al miljarden km's gereden over de wereld en miljoenen in nederland.
@mvmeeg German big legacy brands will do everything to slow this down for obvious reasons, they actively slow down progress in germany and should be punished.
@vrtnws Claude AI die vrij 'politiek correct' is...
@VRT jullie worden toch allemaal vervangen door AI, duw jullie zelf nog wat meer en sneller de afgrond in.
Dont let the door hit you on the way out.

De @Tesla community houdt hier al geruime tijd de vinger aan de pols over de toelating voor de FSD-technologie op onze Vlaamse en Belgische wegen.
Uit waardering voor jullie niet-aflatende interesse (en aanmoediging 😉), krijgen jullie hierbij de primeur: ik heb net de toelating getekend! 🚘
Deze beslissing gaat nu naar onze dienst homologatie, zij zullen @RDWnl op de hoogte brengen van de goedkeuring. Vlaanderen omarmt innovatie!
