🚨 Big win for Tesla FSD Supervised in Europe. 🇪🇺
The Dutch vehicle authority (RDW) has strongly defended and explained its approval of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) after facing criticism.
In a detailed statement, the RDW confirms they conducted extensive independent testing:
✅ Over 3,000 hours of testing on test tracks and public roads
✅ More than 1,000 test runs
✅ Data from 1.8 million km driven in Europe with FSD Supervised
✅ Tested in complex urban traffic, various road types, and extreme weather conditions
They did NOT rely solely on Tesla’s data, they performed their own rigorous validation over more than 18 months.
Key conclusion:
“This driver assistance system is at least as safe as other driver assistance systems” and fully meets all European requirements.
The RDW continues active monitoring, with nearly 40,000 Teslas already driving ~24 million km in the Netherlands without relevant incidents.

This is a major step for autonomous driving in Europe. 🇳🇱 🇪🇺⚡

Tesla FSD 13.2 vs Waymo!
I had FSD and Waymo do the same drive — same start point, same end point. Both arrived with 0 interventions but the Tesla had fewer awkward moments and arrived in 15m40s while the Waymo took 43 minutes — nearly 3x longer.
