Tesla causes teen to fail driver's license test
Fox News
A California teen failed his driver's test because the proctor though his Tesla Model 3's regenerative braking system was too helpful. The DMV later overturned the decision and issued new guidance to its staff.
"Right off the bat, she warns me that the car was slowing down on its own, like at a stop sign. And she told me that happened twice, before we even left the parking lot. And then we continue on the test. We did everything that a test is supposed to have in it. And then she then pulled me in and told me I failed," Rosenblum said.
The feature is available on most electric cars, and can be deactivated, but Rosenblum said he was not instructed to do so.
It wasn't the first time the issue has occurred during a test and the DMV told KPIX that it has now sent guidance to its staff to consider the use of the feature as the sole reason to score an error on the evaluation. It also updated Rosenblum's score without requiring him to take the test again.
