# Tesla’s FSD rollout in Europe runs into the regulator scepticism Musk has been projecting through

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Reuters has published internal EU regulator correspondence revealing sustained skepticism toward Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system in Europe. Key concerns include FSD exceeding posted speed limits (flagged by Sweden's Transport Agency), failure to reliably detect motorcyclists in independent testing, and safety claims based predominantly on US driving conditions. The Netherlands' RDW granted the first EU type approval in April 2026, but Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and Poland have not followed. Tesla's Q2-Q3 2026 EU-wide approval timeline appears optimistic given that major member states remain unconvinced, and Tesla's strategy of encouraging owners to lobby governments has reportedly hardened regulator skepticism rather than easing it. The next key committee votes are scheduled for July and October 2026.
