Lena Gonzalez of Long Beach, prohibits California dealers and manufacturers from “deceptively naming or marketing” a car as self-driving if it’s equipped with only partial automation features that still require human drivers to pay attention and handle driving.However, Gonzalez told the Los Angeles Times in August that the DMV’s lack of enforcement prompted her and state legislators to advance the bill to enshrine the rules into state law.This bill “increases consumer safety by requiring dealers and manufacturers that sell new passenger vehicles equipped with a semiautonomous driving assistance feature... to give a clear description of the functions and limitations of those features,” Gonzalez said in a statement as the bill made its way through the Legislature.California’s new law does not address safety aspects of the Tesla software, though it’s the latest example of legislators, regulators and consumers pushing back on advertising they say is deceptive and misleading."
