France has launched road trials of Tesla’s Full Self‑Driving (FSD) software, marking the latest step toward broader European acceptance of the controversial autonomous‑driving suite. The tests, conducted on public highways under strict supervision, aim to evaluate safety, reliability and compliance with EU regulations. France’s move follows the Netherlands’ provisional authorization of FSD in April, suggesting a coordinated push among member states to standardise the technology’s rollout. Regulators will monitor the outcomes closely, as the results could shape the timeline for a continent‑wide rollout and influence the future of driver‑assist systems across Europe.
