Tesla, in a Nov. 9 letter to NHTSA Administrator Jonathan Morrison, backed a plan to modernize Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 but said the rewrite “must account for camera-based, multi-object detection,” Tesla North and The Electric Standard reported. The letter, signed by safety and homologation director Suraj Nagaraj, said Tesla’s matrix LED headlamps are controlled in real time by vehicle software and that glare and adaptive-beam performance “cannot be resolved by lamp-level laboratory points alone.” Tesla also objected to a proposed advisory committee of up to 18 members that would reserve only two seats for individual automakers. The comments do not change the current lighting standard.
