"IIHS Ratings: Poor Marks for Tesla and Rivals' Automated Driving Systems"

The U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rated Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self Driving technology, along with nine other assisted-driving systems from major automakers, as "poor" in a new study, citing no evidence of real-world safety benefits based on crash data. Only one system, Lexus Teammate with Advanced Drive, earned an acceptable rating, while GM's Super Cruise and Nissan's ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link received "marginal" ratings. The study highlights the lack of federal regulations and consistent guidance for advanced-driver assistance systems, and suggests that automakers could improve safety ratings by adopting existing technology for functions such as driver-monitoring or attention warnings.
