Tesla hits Musk’s 10B-mile threshold for 'safe unsupervised' driving, but no switch yet

Tesla says its Full Self-Driving (Supervised) fleet has surpassed 10 billion miles, crossing the threshold Elon Musk set for “safe unsupervised” driving, but the system remains a Level 2 feature that requires a human driver to supervise. Musk had suggested roughly 10 billion miles of training data would be needed before unsupervised access, and liability questions—given Tesla’s owner-liability stance—remain unresolved. The company notes past crashes and legal cases, while gradually expanding unsupervised robotaxi use in Dallas and Houston (with Austin showing a mix of supervised and unsupervised vehicles). Tesla has signaled unsupervised access could come only when legally permissible, leaving customers waiting as thresholds continue to move.
