NHTSA announced that it has launched an investigation into Tesla for not correctly reporting crashes involving its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving systems.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the road safety regulator in the US, already has several open investigations into Tesla, most of which are related to Tesla’s advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS): Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD).

Now, it is opening a new investigation related to inconsistencies in how Tesla reports crashes involving its ADAS systems.

Due to the Standing General Order 2021-01 (the “SGO”), automakers are required to report to NHTSA crashes involving their autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems within five days of being notified of them.
