Self driving Tesla crashes into MSP
EATON COUNTY, MI – A Tesla on autopilot hit a Michigan State Police car early Wednesday morning, officials confirmed.
The MSP car was parked with its emergency lights on while investigating a car-deer crash at 1:12 a.m., March 17 on I-96 near Waverly Road in Eaton County, when the Tesla hit it, police said.
The Tesla was on autopilot and failed to move over, hitting the patrol car, police said.
As per your story.
“ The Tesla was on autopilot and failed to move over, hitting the patrol car, police said.
The autopilot function means the car can “steer, accelerate and brake automatically within its lane,” per Tesla’s website. It does not make the vehicle autonomous and requires supervision, per the website.”.
It is a level 2 system which the driver acknowledges every time he uses it so yep. 100 percent driver error.
