Tesla’s planned rollout of its driverless Cybercab service has drawn scrutiny from U.S. regulators, prompting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to open an investigation into the technology’s safety and compliance. Meanwhile, the CEO of Here Technologies, a mapping subsidiary of a major automaker, has outlined how carmakers are reconsidering their reliance on third-party navigation systems in favor of integrating proprietary maps directly into vehicles. The shift reflects growing concerns over data control and the need for more seamless autonomous driving capabilities. Industry observers are watching closely as these developments could reshape the future of self-driving technology and automotive software.
