Tesla has informed U.S. regulators that all responses related to the safety of its robotaxi operations in Texas are to be kept confidential. This announcement was made through a letter issued on Monday.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) indicated on Friday that it is evaluating Tesla's answers concerning the safety of its self-driving technology, especially under challenging weather conditions. This review comes as part of a broader inquiry into several safety aspects.
Under federal law, NHTSA is limited in its ability to disclose information that companies deem confidential. The agency stated it would consider all responses and pertinent data before deciding on any safety measures to be implemented.
