A new update is ready to rollout in a software of Tesla Cars by which cars can see and respond to traffic lights and stop signs, in response to these sign Tesla Cars will slow down its speed.

This is a very good news for only those Tesla Cars owners which have third versions of the onboard computer that empowers "Autopilot", which refers to "Hardware 3". Yes, this means not all Tesla Cars are going to receive this updates.

The feature "slow for traffic lights and stop signs" is still in under "beta update" and the testers are facing many issues like car is not slowing down its speed if there is some obstacles between view-sight of traffic lights and car, or between the stop-signs and cars, slowing down for every object that seems like a traffic light(picture) and objects or stop-signs. This feature won't work at railroad crossings or pedestrian crosswalks.

If Tesla Cars owners which have "Hardware 3" system wants this feature into their system(car) they have to pay for this update for using.

When this feature is activated, the driver have to tap the accelerator in order to start the car, because at current stage this car is not able to perform all task, but soon it will perform all the task.

According to The Verge "Exactly when owners will realize that full value is a total guessing game, as are most things with Tesla when it comes to timelines. When Musk teased a development version of the Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control feature in 2018, for example, he said: “Your Tesla will soon be able to go from your garage at home to parking at work with no driver input at all.”"
