[@cobwebtheorem7538]

And has also been involved in some spectacular crashes while on 'auto pilot' as the occupant claimed. Rammed into a huge overturned truck on the highway, which the Tesla didn't 'see.' Seems AI is still a long way from differentiating overturned trucks on the highway with overpasses (it slows down when it approaches a flyover/overpass).
