华盛顿,9月10日(路透社)——一名民主党议员周四呼吁美国汽车安全监管机构采取行动,解决特斯拉自动驾驶和全自动驾驶系统的滥用问题,他援引了数十段似乎显示驾驶员在驾驶时睡着或未专注驾驶的视频。

伊利诺伊州众议员拉贾·克里希纳穆尔蒂在写给美国交通部长肖恩·达菲的信中,援引了美国全国广播公司新闻的一篇报道,该报道指出有43段视频显示有人在行驶中的特斯拉驾驶座上睡着,其中今年就有17段。

克里希纳穆尔蒂表示,美国国家公路交通安全管理局“必须确保制造商拥有足够的安全防护措施,以防止可预见的滥用行为,同时确保不会鼓励驾驶员过度依赖仍需其全程注意力的系统。”

许多特斯拉车主表示,该系统允许他们长时间双手离开方向盘,还有一些人发布了视频,展示他们在驾驶时可以做其他事情。

特斯拉、美国交通部和国家公路交通安全管理局均未立即回应置评请求。

“国家公路交通安全管理局是否了解越来越多的公开视频显示,特斯拉车主在启用自动驾驶或全自动驾驶系统时,显然处于睡着或未专注驾驶的状态?”克里希纳穆尔蒂问道。

他表示,他想了解国家公路交通安全管理局是否评估过,当车内摄像头被遮挡、视线受阻,或驾驶员使用太阳镜或帽子干扰检测时,特斯拉的安全防护措施是否有效。

2023年,特斯拉召回了约200万辆汽车,几乎是其在美国道路上行驶的所有电动汽车,以更好地确保车主在使用自动驾驶系统时保持专注。

特斯拉曾表示,自动驾驶系统可使车辆在车道内转向、加速和制动,而全自动驾驶车辆可以遵守交通信号并变更车道。这家汽车制造商还表示,这两项技术都需要“全程保持专注”的驾驶员,双手必须放在方向盘上。

今年3月,国家公路交通安全管理局对320万辆配备全自动驾驶系统的特斯拉展开升级调查,担忧该系统可能在能见度不佳的情况下无法发现问题或向驾驶员发出预警。

今年10月,国家公路交通安全管理局就50多起交通安全违规报告和一系列撞车事故,对290万辆配备全自动驾驶系统的特斯拉展开单独调查。该汽车安全机构表示,全自动驾驶——这是一个要求驾驶员保持专注并在必要时进行干预的辅助系统——已经“引发了违反交通安全法规的车辆行为”。

WASHINGTON, Sept 10 (Reuters) – A Democratic lawmaker called on a U.S. auto safety agency on Thursday to take action to ​address misuse of Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving systems, citing dozens of videos that ‌appear to show drivers asleep or disengaged from driving.

In a letter to U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois cited an NBC News report that identified 43 videos appearing to show individuals asleep in ​the driver’s seat of moving Teslas, including 17 this year.

Krishnamoorthi said the National Highway ​Traffic Safety Administration “must ensure that manufacturers have adequate safeguards to prevent foreseeable misuse ⁠and that drivers are not encouraged to place dangerous levels of reliance on systems
that still ​require their full attention.”

Many Tesla drivers say the systems allow them to take their hands off the ​wheel for extended periods and some have posted videos suggesting they can perform other tasks while behind the wheel.

Tesla, the DOT and NHTSA did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

“Is NHTSA aware of the growing body ​of publicly available videos showing Tesla drivers apparently asleep or otherwise disengaged from the driving task ​while Autopilot or FSD is operating?” Krishnamoorthi asked.

He said he wants to know if NHTSA has evaluated Tesla ‌safeguards when ⁠the cabin camera is obstructed, visibility impaired, or drivers use sunglasses or hats to interfere with detection.

In 2023, Tesla recalled about 2 million vehicles, nearly all of its electric vehicles on U.S. roads, to better ensure that drivers pay attention when using Autopilot.

Tesla has said Autopilot enables vehicles ​to steer, accelerate and brake ​within their lanes, ⁠while Full Self-Driving vehicles can obey traffic signals and change lanes. The automaker has also said both technologies require “fully attentive” drivers whose hands are on ​the wheel.

In March, the NHTSA escalated its probe into 3.2 million Teslas ​equipped with ⁠Full Self-Driving, concerned the system may fail to detect issues or warn drivers in poor visibility.

In October, NHTSA opened a separate probe into 2.9 million Tesla vehicles equipped with its FSD system over more ⁠than ​50 reports of traffic-safety violations and a series of crashes. ​The auto safety agency said FSD — an assistance system that requires drivers to pay attention and intervene if needed — has “induced ​vehicle behavior that violated traffic safety laws.”
