Tesla Full Self Driving (Supervised) Now Permitted in Belgium

Following Tesla Full Self Driving (Supervised) approval and deployment in the Netherlands, the driver-assist software is now permitted to use in Belgium, sort of.

For now, one Tesla car is allowed to test the technology in Flanders, the northern region of Belgium.

Of course, if all goes well, Full Self Driving (Supervised) can be more broadly approved. “The vehicle will ​be tested over approximately 5,000 kilometres to ​evaluate ⁠any differences with the Dutch road infrastructure and traffic rules. If the results are positive, work ⁠can ​quickly be done on a ​provisional European type approval,” Flemish Minister for Mobility, Public Works, Ports, and Sport Annick De Ridder said in a post on ​X.

So, presumably, more widespread approval is on the way following those 5,000 kilometers of driving.

Just as a reminder, this is only about supervised Full Self Driving. It’s not clear at all how long it will be until unsupervised Full Self Driving is permitted anywhere in Europe.
