🇬🇧 English

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is proposing changes to vehicle safety rules to exempt cars with Automated Driving Systems (ADS) from needing a display that shows the gear position. This change aims to reduce unnecessary costs and regulations for vehicles that don't have manual controls, as the display isn't needed for safety in these cars. This proposal mainly affects manufacturers of ADS-equipped vehicles.
