French authorities have blocked Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) software over safety concerns, according to reports. The move comes as the feature seeks regulatory approval in Europe.

While some sources characterize the action as a definitive block, others describe it as opposition to EU-level approval 'for now,' suggesting the process remains open.
