So as expected, and as has been the case with almost every case where someone blames FSD or Autopilot, the guy has just been lying through his teeth.
It’s like the people who go and scratch up teslas without realising that they’re on camera. Everything these cars do is logged in a black box type manner. You will not win in court by attempting to say it did something it didn’t.
If they were telling the truth, it almost sounds like a seizure.
Yep, sounds like it - in which case the car did nothing wrong, and it would have happened no matter what car he was driving.
Not even a black box really, it is stored in the Tesla cloud.
Yeh I was talking about the manner in which everything is recorded :)
