France has begun testing Tesla's Full Self-Driving system on public roads, marking a significant step in the European regulatory race to approve autonomous driving technology. The move follows the Netherlands' provisional authorization of the system in April, setting a precedent that other EU member states are now looking to follow. As Tesla pushes for broader European access to its FSD software, the French trial could serve as a critical data point in the ongoing debate over whether the system meets the continent's stringent safety and liability standards. The outcome will likely influence whether the European Commission moves toward a unified framework for autonomous vehicle approval across the bloc.
