US auto-safety regulators have a message for Tesla Inc. owners intending to use their children to test automated-driving technology: Don’t.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said it uses controlled procedures and “it could be highly dangerous for anyone to attempt to test vehicle technologies on their own.” The statement comes in response to recent tweets from Tesla owners appearing to show a child used in a test of a vehicle’s so-called Full Self Driving mode.
