Globe/AP say Tesla's driver automation rated "poor"

2024-03-13 08:19 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that most electronic systems that take on some driving tasks for humans do not adequately make sure drivers are paying attention, and they do not issue strong enough warnings or take other actions to make drivers behave, according to a U.S. insurance industry study. An Associated Press dispatch to The Globe says that only one of 14 partially automated systems tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety performed well enough to get an overall "acceptable" rating. Two others were rated "marginal," while the rest were rated "poor." No system received the top rating of "good." "Most of them don't include adequate measures to prevent misuse and keep drivers from losing focus on what's happening on the road," IIHS said. The institute tested the cars to get automakers to follow standards, including how closely they watch drivers and how fast the cars issue warnings to inattentive drivers. Teammate in the Lexus LS earned the adequate rating. GM's Super Cruise in the GMC Sierra and Nissan's Pro-Pilot Assist with Navi-Link in the Ariya electric vehicle were rated marginal. Other systems from Nissan, Tesla, BMW, Ford, Genesis, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo were rated poor.
