California threatens to ban Tesla sales for 30 days

> Tesla has 90 days to fix claims in its advertising of self-driving and autopilot features that the state says are misleading, officials at the California Department of Motor Vehicles announced Tuesday.

I am surprised this is only happening now. It should have happened years ago. And why would a ban just be for 30 days?

“Self-driving” describes what the system does, not who bears responsibility.

If Tesla had ever explicitly claimed a “self-driver” or “driverless” system, that would indeed be a serious issue — but that’s a different claim.
