  • The Trump transition team wants the incoming administration to drop a car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Elon Musk's Tesla , according to a document seen by Reuters, a move that could cripple the government's ability to investigate and regulate the safety of vehicles with automated-driving systems.

The Trump transition team has recommended the elimination of a federal requirement for automakers to report car crashes involving advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), a move that has drawn opposition from safety advocates and some within the auto industry. This proposal, detailed in a memo from the transition team, aims to reduce regulatory burdens on car manufacturers. Critics argue that removing this reporting obligation could hinder the ability to monitor and improve vehicle safety technologies, potentially compromising public safety. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) had previously mandated these reports to gather data on how ADAS technologies perform in real-world conditions. The recommendation comes amidst broader discussions on deregulation and the future of autonomous vehicle technology in the U.S.
