US investigates 2.4m Tesla self-driving vehicles after reported collisions

Tesla's "camera-only" approach to partially and fully autonomous driving systems, some industry experts have said, could cause issues in low-visibility conditions as the vehicles do not have a set of backup sensors. 

"Weather conditions can impact the camera's ability to see things and I think the regulatory environment will certainly weigh in on this," said Jeff Schuster, vice-president at GlobalData… 

Tesla's rivals that operate robotaxis rely on expensive sensors such as lidar and radar to detect driving environments…
