Tesla/Musk has stated many times that FSD will follow common practice rather than follow the letter of the law. Over 90% of Americans speed in school zones, so FSD is presumably programmed to also do so.

Who speeds in a school zone? It's like 1000ft of going slow so you don't hit a child

How could they say this but still claim it will be safer than humans?

As a normal human citizen, speeding in a school zone carries a risk of a significant ticket, with repeat offenses adding points until my license is suspended.

What consequences does Elon Musk face when his autonomous cars do the same?

Tens of thousands dead in traffic due to the “common practice” of driving unsafely. We have the opportunity here to make the roads safe but apparently mr musk doesn’t see the need.

I hope the Nordics prevail and the Europeans don’t follow his bullshit.
