Tesla CEO Elon Musk tweeted that the company will launch automatic recognition of traffic lights and stop signs in the United States in the next few weeks, which will "may be in the third quarter" globally use.

The upcoming documentation for the "Full Autopilot" feature indicates that when both "Auto Steering" and "Traffic-Aware Cruise Control" are enabled, cars can automatically stop at traffic lights and stop signs.

It is worth mentioning that these two functions are included in Tesla's basic driving assistance function, which is standard on all vehicles.

Tesla's traffic lights and stop sign recognition have been in preparation for a long time. 2

In March 019, Tesla released an updated version of the software for 2019.8.3. One of the new functions will automatically remind the driver. Then it is possible to run a red light at a crossroad and ask the driver to take over the control of the electric car.

Users in other countries need to wait longer, because each country / region has different road rules and some strict government regulations that have not yet adapted to more advanced driving assistance functions.

Musk said the feature is a few weeks away from the large-scale promotion in the United States.

However, the next few weeks of data obtained from pre-experience users who use the software will help the company's neural network understand the driving behavior in signal areas.
