Latvia: approval only for the models listed in the RDW approval
===============================================================

When recognising the approval on 26 October 2026, the Latvian Road Traffic Safety Directorate CSDD wrote that Tesla Assisted Driving will only be available on the Tesla models listed in the RDW approval that have the appropriate software. CSDD also names changes Tesla made first, including a lower margin for exceeding the speed limit.

 What CSDD wrote
---------------

On **26 October 2026** the Latvian Ministry of Transport (Satiksmes ministrija) published a notice from the Road Traffic Safety Directorate CSDD (Ceļu satiksmes drošības direkcija). CSDD has recognised the RDW's provisional EU type approval for the driver-assistance system 'now called Tesla Assisted Driving in Europe (previously Full Self-Driving (Supervised))'.

On its scope, CSDD writes (translated from Latvian):

> Tesla Assisted Driving will only be available on the Tesla models listed in the RDW approval that are equipped with the appropriate software.

Original: *'Tesla Assisted Driving' būs pieejama tikai RDW apstiprinājumā norādītajos 'Tesla' modeļos, kas aprīkoti ar atbilstošu programmatūru.*

CSDD further writes that the decision was taken after assessing the RDW documentation and information from the manufacturer, including on changes: a lower threshold for exceeding the maximum speed, automatic reset of a manually set speed offset after every drive, and a stronger driver monitoring system.

Why this matters
----------------

The recognition does not apply to every Tesla, only to the models and software set out in the RDW approval. According to the Finnish regulator Traficom, these are vehicles with the latest hardware generation, and Tesla has not initiated a corresponding procedure for older cars.

The translation from Latvian is ours.

 [      ](https://hw3claim.nl/en)Tesla promised that every car with Hardware 3 would become fully self-driving. FSD is now rolling out across the EU, but not on our cars. Every HW3 owner is affected, whether or not they purchased FSD.
