Tesla's (TSLA) Assisted Driving System has been approved in Finland with immediate effect, the Scandinavian country's transport and communications agency, Traficom, said Wednesday.

Finland has proceeded with the approval process for the driving system at a "slightly faster pace" than in the European Union, according to a Traficom statement.

The final approval at the EU level is expected during the coming winter because Tesla is "ready to make the changes to the system that are requested and justified by different member states," the Finnish regulator said.
