France Begins Public-Road Testing of Tesla FSD, Moves Closer to European Approval

The French government announced that it will put two Tesla vehicles equipped with FSD through public-road testing. Approval in the European Union (EU) could come as early as this fall. Test results are expected in mid-to-late September.

What happened

According to BigGo Finance, French Transport Minister Philippe Tabarot announced that Tesla had provided two FSD-equipped vehicles for public-road testing in France. The tests could pave the way for approval of FSD by the European Union (EU).

Why it matters

French authorities have begun testing two vehicles equipped with Tesla FSD on public roads. The original report says France will independently verify data from the Netherlands and check how the system performs with French road signs and driving practices, providing input for an EU decision.
