The feature alerts Tesla drivers to apply pressure to the steering wheel to confirm drivers are keeping their hands on the wheel
In a new update to its full self-driving mode, Tesla is reportedly removing what its drivers call “steering wheel nag.” The feature, which alerts Tesla drivers to apply pressure to their steering wheel to confirm they are paying attention, is being replaced by enhanced camera-based driver monitoring, Benzinga reported.
The feature removal is meant to improve the driving experience and safety. Tesla is expected to update more cars in its fleet this week, Benzinga reported. Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Tesla chief executive Elon Musk called the v12.4 update “mind-blowing,” and also said it should add a five to 10 times improvement in miles per intervention, Electrek reported.
