Federal auto safety regulators have granted a five-week extension for Tesla to respond to allegations that its vehicles have broken traffic laws while operating in what the electric automaker calls “full self-driving” mode. Tesla now has until Feb. 23 to answer the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration’s request for information. The original deadline was Jan. 19, 2025. The preliminary investigation of Tesla’s full-self driving feature was opened in early October of last year after the NHTSA said it had collected dozens of reports of the cars running red lights or driving on the wrong side of the road, sometimes crashing into other vehicles and causing injuries.
