0:00.0 | Hey everybody, we have Maur here. Welcome back to Tesla Daily. Today we are of course |
0:11.3 | going to be talking about the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opening |
0:14.6 | up a preliminary evaluation of Tesla's autopilot. We'll talk about exactly what that is, |
0:19.5 | the steps and the process and how significant these things might be. |
0:23.4 | Over the weekend then we did get as expected the next version of the FSD Beta Subversion 9.2 |
