Federal Regulators have ordered Tesla to provide data about
the auto pilot configuration known as Elon mode regulators said
it would allow vehicles to operate for extended periods
of time without the driver touching the steering wheel.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it is concerned about
the safety impacts of recent changes to Tesla's driver monitoring system.
The agency sought this information in late July and
received a reply from Tesla that is currently confidential.
The agency's letter to Tesla was made public yesterday
and this comes after Musk live streamed a video
of himself inside a Tesla car operating with full
self driving software which is still under development.
