Tesla Full Self-Driving Beta Rolls Through All-Way Stop Signs
medium How serious is it? About this label
Failing to stop at a stop sign can increase the risk of a crash. The notice does not tell owners to stop driving.
What's wrong, in plain English
Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Beta) software had a setting called 'rolling stop.' With it turned on, the car could go through an intersection where every direction has a stop sign without ever coming to a complete stop. That is not how a stop sign works, and it can lead to a crash. Tesla sent out a free over-the-air software update — one your car downloads by itself — that turns the rolling stop feature off.
