Tesla expands traffic-light and stop-sign braking to the wider public

Tesla disclosed that it had enabled traffic-light and stop-sign recognition and braking for Early Access users by the end of the first quarter, then expanded the feature to the wider public in April. Drivers still had to confirm attention before vehicles would continue through intersections.
