The FSD feature has faced criticism previously, including warnings from The Dawn Project's founder about its failure to stop for school buses.

In light of these safety concerns, Elon Musk announced that the first Tesla capable of driving itself from the factory to a customer's home is set for June 28, 2025.

Musk indicated on X that Tesla is being overly cautious about safety, which may lead to further delays, and noted that the launch date could still change.

Additionally, Tesla has delayed the rollout of its fully autonomous Cybercab, which was originally anticipated to launch on June 12, with a new target date set for June 22, 2025.

A recent demonstration of Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode in Austin, Texas, has raised serious safety concerns after a Model Y ignored school bus stop signals and collided with child-sized mannequins.

Conducted by The Dawn Project, along with Tesla Takedown and ResistAustin, the tests revealed that the FSD software repeated the dangerous behavior of running through a stopped school bus's flashing lights eight times.

Tesla's FSD is classified as 'Supervised,' which requires full driver attention and warns of potential dangers, emphasizing that non-compliance could lead to serious injury or death.

This incident is not isolated; in April 2024, a Tesla Model S using FSD was involved in a fatal crash in Washington, resulting in the death of a motorcyclist.
