France has begun on-road testing of Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) Supervised system ahead of a possible European Union approval vote, potentially as soon as October 6 or in early December. Transport Minister Philippe Tabarot said Tesla provided two FSD-equipped vehicles after months of technical work and a constructive exchange with Chief Executive Elon Musk. The system can accelerate, brake and steer but requires drivers to remain ready to take control. Tesla says FSD was involved in fewer collisions than manually driven Teslas across roughly 102 million kilometers in the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia and Lithuania, although it cautions that the observational comparison cannot fully account for weather, traffic or activation choices. France's independent tests will assess data from the Netherlands and Tesla and performance on French roads, with results expected by mid to late September. The Netherlands granted provisional approval in April, followed by Belgium, Denmark, Estonia and Lithuania. Wider EU approval would require support from 15 member states representing 65% of the bloc's population, while France and Sweden have raised concerns including speeding and driver supervision.
