Czech Republic Approves Tesla’s FSD After Earlier Safety Concerns
The ministry said safety concerns were resolved after months of review, and Tesla said rollout will begin soon for eligible vehicles with AI4 hardware.
- On Monday, the Czech Republic provisionally approved Tesla's Full Self-Driving system, reversing its earlier skepticism over safety concerns. The Czech Ministry of Transport cited "clarification of specific issues" as crucial to the decision.
- Prague had declined to recognize Dutch RDW's April approval, citing concerns over speed-limit compliance and driver attention. Officials resolved these issues following expert review, talks with Tesla, and real-world data from other countries using the system.
- Tesla Europe announced the rollout "will begin soon" for eligible vehicles equipped with AI4 hardware. FSD Supervised remains a Level 2 system; the driver must stay engaged and remains legally responsible.
- Czechia becomes the seventh EU member state to clear the system for public roads, following approvals in Denmark, Belgium, and Slovenia. This expansion adds political weight ahead of the October 6 EU vote.
- The Technical Committee on Motor Vehicles votes on October 6, when a qualified majority representing 65 percent of the EU population could unlock remaining markets. Germany, France, Italy, and Spain have so far preferred to wait for bloc-wide guidance.
