According to @ai_darpa, Tesla's supervised Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology is poised for its first regulatory approval in Europe, with the Netherlands expected to grant the green light as early as February 2026 (source: @ai_darpa, Nov 24, 2025). This development follows years of regulatory standoffs, as Tesla argued that outdated EU rules made FSD deployment illegal in its current form. By leveraging Article 39 of EU law to seek a national exemption from the Dutch authority RDW, Tesla could pave the way for FSD’s recognition across the European Union. This strategy highlights the potential for streamlined AI-driven vehicle technology deployment and signals significant business opportunities for autonomous driving solutions in the European automotive market.
