NEWS: Tesla is officially testing FSD in The Boring Company's Vegas Loop tunnel system. “We’ve started to test,” Steve Hill, CEO of the Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority. No passengers have been in vehicles during the testing. In the future, the Boring Company will remove safety drivers from the front seat during testing, Hill said, but there is no telling when that will take place, as it will depend on when Tesla and the Boring Company can demonstrate to the LVCVA that it is safe to do so. Hill said that the vehicles are currently being tested in self-driving mode inside the tunnels, “experiencing the environment,” as “they find spots that are difficult for them.” The rock walls of the tunnels, Hill said, combined with the bright, colorful lights in the passageways create some “interesting but odd lighting” for Tesla’s self-driving system. The tunnels should make for a “much easier environment” for autonomous vehicles than the open roads of Austin, because in the tunnels, the Boring Company has complete control over what and who enters, Hill said - Fortune (video below is not on FSD)
