Following pressure from US auto safety regulators, Tesla accedes to releasing a software update that prevents passengers from playing games on the centre console while the car is in motion. The announcement was made by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration a day after the agency announced it was launching a formal investigation into distracted driving concerns about Tesla's in-dash video games. Some of the games were still playable even while the cars were being driven.

Tesla is known for not having a media relations department, so there is no comment coming through from them. Even with the update, the NHTSA still plans to investigate the feature.
