A recent investigation by NBC found at least 43 videos and 13 citations tied to sleeping while using Tesla's Full Self-Driving software.
Owners are becoming comfortable with misusing the system as it improves, according to one owner.
One congressman is looking for answers from regulatory agencies on whether or not Tesla is doing enough to keep it from happening.
Tesla has a long history of controversy around the branding and marketing of its Full Self-Driving and Autopilot software. Despite what the names might suggest, neither software is actually absolving the driver from the accountability behind the wheel. That's caused confusion in the public eye, which many claim have enabled drivers to be more lackadaisical when either feature is switched on.
Lawmakers across the globe have taken up issue with the marketing in the past. And now, one U.S. congressman is calling for action after surfacing more than 40 videos of Tesla drivers seemingly sleeping while their cars barrel down the highway.
