The German government took the highly unusual step of notifying some 2,500 Tesla drivers in the country that the “Autopilot” cannot make their car drive autonomously. The Federal Motor Authority told Tesla owners in a letter that the Autopilot function is purely a driver assistance system and not a highly-automated vehicle that can be operated without the driver’s constant attention, Reuters reports.  Probably more painfully for the Californian carmaker “Tesla has been asked to find a new name for the system,” writes the mass-circulation BILD Zeitung.
