Full Self-Driving: Tesla's Full Self-Driving is considerably more sophisticated.\nTesla promises to update it regularly in hopes of eventually releasing an SAE Level 5 autonomous driving system to everyone who has purchased Full Self-Driving.\nRead: 5 reasons you should hold off on buying an EVThe future of self-driving carsEngineers from more than a dozen companies are testing self-driving systems in hopes of producing an SAE Level 5 self-driving car.\nIn one recent incident, a self-driving car in testing was baffled by a truck bed full of traffic signs being delivered to a construction site.\nBeyond the engineering challenge, 50 state laws, plus the District of Columbia, must adapt to decide safety and liability issues before self-driving cars become common.
